This trial compares two methods of numbing pain—an injection near the joint versus a nerve block—during ankle or hindfoot surgery. It aims to see which approach helps with comfort and recovery after surgery.
This trial compares two types of pain blocks (Exparel vs. Marcaine) given during heart surgery to see which one provides better pain relief. If you are scheduled for a heart surgery through a small or full chest incision, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether a long-lasting numbing shot (liposomal bupivacaine) works better than a regular numbing shot (plain bupivacaine) for pain after minimally invasive chest surgery. It may help you have less post-surgery pain and potentially use less pain medication.
This trial compares two methods of pain control after ACL surgery: a long-lasting local anesthetic (Exparel) versus a nerve block. It aims to find which provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study tests whether adding two medications (Exparel and dexamethasone) to a shoulder surgery nerve block reduces pain and opioid use after surgery. If you're having primary shoulder surgery, this trial may help you recover with less pain medication.
This study tests whether adding dexamethasone, dexmedetomidine, or both to a numbing shot (nerve block) provides better pain relief after leg surgery in children. The goal is to find which combination works best to keep your child comfortable with fewer side effects.
