Comparing two pain relief methods for hip fracture surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after hip fracture surgery: a new type of injection near the hip joint (cryoablation of the PENG nerve group) versus a standard numbing catheter placed in the groin area (fascia iliaca catheter). The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief and recovery.

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief during hip fracture repair. You may be eligible if you are 50 or older, have a broken hip, and are scheduled for surgery with spinal anesthesia.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (one near the hip bone, one in the thigh) to see which provides better pain relief for people with a hip fracture. If you qualify, you would receive one of these blocks as part of your standard care.
This trial compares two ways to reduce pain after a hip fracture: a nerve block injection around the hip area and a common pain medication called tramadol. The goal is to find a better method for managing pain in hip fracture patients.
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (pain-relief injections) to see which one works better for patients having surgery to repair a broken hip. Both methods numb the area around the hip so you feel less pain during and after surgery.
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after hip fracture surgery. Both methods numb the area around your hip to reduce pain and may help you recover better.
This study compares two types of pain-relieving nerve blocks for people having hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see which block provides better pain control, which may help you recover more comfortably.
