Comparing two nerve blocks for lumbar disc surgery pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for pain control after lumbar disc surgery. It may help reduce pain and the need for strong pain medicines after your operation.

This study compares two types of nerve blocks (a longissimus plane block and a multifidus plane block) to a local numbing injection for pain control during lumbar spine surgery. It aims to find which method works best for patients having back surgery.
This trial compares two pain control methods during and after a single-level lumbar disc surgery. It aims to see if one method reduces the amount of anesthetic gas used during the operation.
This trial compares two different types of nerve blocks to see which one reduces the need for strong pain medicine after lumbar microsurgery. It may help patients have better pain control and fewer side effects from opioids.
