Comparing two nerve blocks for knee replacement pain
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests two types of pain relief injections after total knee replacement to see which provides better pain control with fewer side effects. It compares a long-lasting liposome bupivacaine to standard bupivacaine, given in two different nerve block locations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two different pain-block methods used during total knee replacement surgery to see which gives better pain relief. The goal is to help patients have less pain and a better recovery after surgery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after knee replacement surgery: one uses a local anesthetic injection around the knee, and the other adds an additional nerve block. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study looks at a type of pain relief called a nerve block (adductor canal block) using a long-lasting medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) after knee replacement surgery. It aims to see if this approach reduces pain and helps you recover better after surgery.
This trial compares two different nerve blocks to see which one controls pain better after knee replacement surgery. Both are given along with a continuous pain pump, and the goal is to improve recovery with fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after knee replacement surgery. Participants will receive one of the two blocks and use a patient-controlled pain pump, and the study will track their pain levels and recovery.
This study tests two different nerve-block techniques to see which provides better pain control after total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to help you recover more comfortably.
