Pain block comparison for hip fracture surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two types of pain-relieving nerve blocks for people having hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see which block provides better pain control, which may help you recover more comfortably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 80 years old
- You have a hip fracture that needs surgery
- You are not allergic to numbing medicines (local anesthetics)
- You do not have severe nerve damage in your limbs
- You are able to have spinal anesthesia (numbing from the waist down)
- You do not have a mental health condition that would make it hard to follow the study

This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to reduce pain before you receive spinal anesthesia for hip fracture surgery. Participants will receive one of the two blocks, and the study will see which provides better pain relief.
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 study compares two types of pain blocks given during hip replacement surgery to see which one provides better pain relief. Participants will receive one of the two blocks along with spinal anesthesia to help manage pain after surgery.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief during hip fracture repair. You may be eligible if you are 50 or older, have a broken hip, and are scheduled for surgery with spinal anesthesia.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (one near the hip bone, one in the thigh) to see which provides better pain relief for people with a hip fracture. If you qualify, you would receive one of these blocks as part of your standard care.
This trial tests if one type of nerve block (PENG block) works better than another (S-FICB) for controlling pain during and after femur fracture surgery. Both blocks are guided by ultrasound to help with your recovery.
