Modified nerve block for knee replacement surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a modified pain-block technique after total knee replacement. It aims to improve pain control and recovery for people having knee surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a total knee replacement.
- You are in good general health (ASA class I-III).
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 35 or lower.
- You do not have a pre-existing nerve problem or disability in your other leg.
- You are not a chronic user of strong painkillers (opioids).
- You have no clotting disorder or infection where the nerve block would be given.

This study compares two different nerve block techniques for pain relief after total knee replacement surgery. It tests whether a block of the nerve in the thigh plus a block around the knee joint works better than the thigh block plus a block of specific knee nerves.
This trial compares two ways of numbing a knee area during planned knee replacement surgery: a nerve block alone versus a nerve block plus additional numbing medicine near the back of the knee. It may help doctors find which approach improves pain control and recovery while keeping side effects low.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks (numbing injections around the knee) to see which works best for pain control after knee replacement surgery. Both approaches use the same anesthesia method, and researchers want to learn if adding an extra nerve block helps reduce pain and improve recovery.
This study compares two ways of using numbing injections during total knee replacement surgery to see which better reduces pain. It may help you and your care team understand the safest and most effective pain-control approach.
This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) around the knee to help manage pain after total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see if these injections reduce pain and improve recovery compared to standard pain treatment.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after total knee replacement, using nerve blocks (injections that numb the nerves). One method combines a block near the upper thigh with a block behind the knee; the other combines the same upper-thigh block with a different block around the knee. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief and helps you recover more comfortably.
