This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (pain-relief injections) to see which one works better for patients having surgery to repair a broken hip. Both methods numb the area around the hip so you feel less pain during and after surgery.
This study tests if a long-acting numbing medicine (bupivacaine liposome) combined with a standard numbing medicine works better for pain control after hip fracture surgery. It compares two different combinations to see which provides more effective pain relief.
This study tests whether combining two medicines (esketamine and dexmedetomidine) can improve sleep quality after hip fracture surgery in older adults. The goal is to help you rest better and recover more comfortably.
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after hip fracture surgery. Both methods numb the area around your hip to reduce pain and may help you recover better.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after total hip replacement. One block uses a standard numbing medicine, and the other adds a medication (dexmedetomidine) that may extend the pain relief. The goal is to see which approach works better for managing pain after surgery.
This study tests how a pain-relieving medicine (dexmedetomidine) works during hip replacement surgery. It uses brain-wave monitoring (EEG) to see how the medicine affects pain, which could lead to better pain control after surgery.
