Numbing injection for pain after hip replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a numbing injection called a fascia iliaca block to see how well it controls pain after hip replacement surgery. The goal is to help patients have less pain and use fewer strong pain medicines after their operation.

This trial tests whether a specific nerve block given during planned hip replacement surgery can reduce pain afterward. It may help you use less opioid pain medicine, but you must meet certain safety and medication criteria.
This study tests a special numbing injection (called a PENG block) given around the hip joint to see how well it controls pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement under spinal anesthesia and are in generally good health, this study may help find better ways to manage your post-surgery pain.
This trial compares three types of nerve blocks to find which provides the best pain relief after a hip replacement. It may help you have less pain and a smoother recovery.
This trial compares three different numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which provides the best pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It may help older adults with moderate health status who are having hip surgery.
This study compares different ways to manage pain during and after hip replacement surgery in older adults. Researchers will test whether a spinal injection with morphine works better than a nerve block (with or without a steroid), aiming to find the approach that gives the best pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares three different ways to manage pain after hip surgery in older adults. One group gets a nerve block behind the hip, another gets the block plus a numbing injection around the joint, and the third gets only the numbing injection. The goal is to find the best method to reduce pain and help you recover more comfortably.
