Comparing pain relief and blood flow during back injections
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to give a pain-relieving injection for lower back problems. If you have ongoing back pain from a disc, narrowing, or slipped bone, this treatment may help reduce your pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two ways of delivering a pain-blocking injection (erector spinae plane block) after a single-level lower back surgery. The goal is to see which approach provides better pain relief after surgery.
This study tests a nerve block injection (called an erector spinae plane block) to see if it helps reduce pain from a herniated disc in the lower back. It may be a good fit if you have ongoing low back pain and have not had spine surgery before.
This study compares two ways to treat chronic muscle pain in the upper back: a nerve block (numbing injection near the spine) and trigger point injections (shots directly into painful muscle knots). The goal is to see which approach works better for long-lasting relief.
This study tests a numbing injection called an erector spinae plane block to treat sudden low back pain. It may help people who have trouble walking due to their pain and have no known cause for it.
This trial compares two types of pain-block injections (erector spinae plane block versus quadro-iliac plane block) given during lower back surgery to see which controls pain better. It may help you have less pain and need fewer pain medicines after your operation.
This trial tests two different injection methods to see which one provides better pain relief after lower back surgery. If you are having a microdiscectomy, this study may help determine the best way to manage your post-operative pain.
