Numbing injection after hip replacement for pain relief
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether an injection of numbing medicine near the hip can help control pain after a hip replacement surgery. It may be an option for people who have significant pain after their operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be scheduled for a first-time total hip replacement under general anesthesia.
- You must be able to give written consent to participate.
- You cannot be allergic to the numbing medicine (ropivacaine).
- You must not be considered a vulnerable person (e.g., unable to protect your own interests).
- You must not have had complications during surgery that prevent you from putting weight on your leg or walking.
- You must have significant pain after surgery (the injection is meant as rescue treatment).

This trial tests a numbing injection called a fascia iliaca block to see how well it controls pain after hip replacement surgery. The goal is to help patients have less pain and use fewer strong pain medicines after their operation.
This study tests a new numbing injection (nerve block) for people having total hip replacement surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and works well for pain relief after surgery.
This trial compares two nerve-blocking techniques to reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. Both methods use numbing medication around specific areas near your hip to help you feel more comfortable after the operation.
This study tests two types of nerve-blocking injections to reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. The injections numb specific nerves around your hip so you need less pain medication after the operation.
This study tests a special numbing injection (called a PENG block) given around the hip joint to see how well it controls pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement under spinal anesthesia and are in generally good health, this study may help find better ways to manage your post-surgery pain.
This study tests whether an ultrasound-guided numbing injection near the hip area can provide better pain relief after lower back surgery. If you qualify, you may receive this injection to help control pain after your operation.
