Pain after knee replacement study
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at long-term pain after total knee replacement surgery. It may help understand why some people have persistent pain and find ways to prevent it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a first-time total knee replacement.
- You can provide written permission to be in the study.

- You do not have any reason that would prevent you from receiving regional anesthesia.
- You are not currently taking strong painkillers like opioids on a regular basis.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 35 or lower.

This study looks at how "rebound pain" (increased pain when pain medication wears off) affects long-term pain after total knee replacement. Researchers want to understand this connection and potentially improve pain management strategies for knee surgery patients.
This study tests a nerve-blocking injection to reduce pain after knee replacement surgery. The goal is to help patients manage pain better in the days following their operation using a combination pain-control approach.
This study compares two pain-control methods for the leg after a total knee replacement: a single injection versus a continuous nerve-block catheter. It aims to see which option helps people recover and do rehab better.
This study compares two different nerve-blocking anesthesia techniques to see which one controls pain better after knee replacement surgery. Both methods are designed to numb the area around your knee so you need less pain medication afterward.
This study tests a new way to manage pain after total knee replacement. It aims to see if a specific local pain block can reduce the need for strong opioids and improve recovery.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after total knee replacement. The blocks are given before surgery and aim to reduce pain and help you recover more comfortably.
