Pain relief options after lower leg surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after lower limb injury surgery: using a combination of different pain medicines versus a nerve block injection. It aims to find which approach provides better pain control.

This study compares two common numbing medications used together versus one alone for nerve-blocking surgery on the lower leg. Researchers want to see which approach works better and lasts longer for pain relief after your procedure.
This study tests a nerve-numbing injection (parasacral ischial plane block) given before lower leg surgery to reduce pain. Researchers want to see if this method works well for patients having planned surgery on their legs, hips, or thighs.
This trial tests a new way to numb the sciatic nerve for surgeries below the knee, like fixing ankle breaks or correcting toe deformities. It aims to see if it's safe and works well.
This trial tests different combinations of two numbing medicines (lidocaine and bupivacaine) given through the spine to manage pain during lower limb surgery. The goal is to find which mixture works best and lasts longest.
This trial compares two pain medicines after lower limb surgery: one given in the spine and one in the vein. It aims to find which works better for pain relief.
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.
