Nerve block for outpatient foot surgery pain control
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of nerve block for foot surgery done without staying overnight. It aims to improve pain relief during and after the procedure, with fewer side effects than other blocks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must be scheduled for outpatient foot surgery and planned to receive this nerve block (called FIT-block).
- You cannot have a severe bleeding disorder.
- You cannot have nerve damage or a chronic pain condition.
- You cannot have an infection or injury where the needle goes in.
- You must not be allergic to the medications used, and you must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You must be able to rate your own pain.

This study tests which numbing medicine works faster for an ultrasound-guided ankle nerve block during foot surgery: mepivacaine or bupivacaine. It may help improve comfort by reducing how long it takes for the numbness to start.
This trial compares two methods of numbing pain—an injection near the joint versus a nerve block—during ankle or hindfoot surgery. It aims to see which approach helps with comfort and recovery after surgery.
This study looks at how well a numbing injection around the ankle controls pain after surgery, and whether it works differently for people with diabetes compared to those without. If you're having foot or ankle surgery and are willing to provide your medical data, this could help improve pain management for patients like you.
This trial compares two methods of pain management after ankle surgery: a one-time injection of long-lasting numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) versus a continuous nerve block via a small tube (catheter) placed near the nerve. The goal is to find which approach provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study tests a new way to numb the lower leg for surgery using a nerve block. It aims to see if this approach is safe and works well for pain relief during and after surgery.
This study tests different strengths of a numbing medicine (ropivacaine) used in an ankle block for foot surgery. The goal is to find the best dose that starts working quickly and lasts the right amount of time for pain relief after bunion repair.
