NSAIDs for Tibia Fracture Pain and Healing Study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether NSAID pain relievers (like ibuprofen) affect bone healing after a broken tibia and if they can help reduce the need for stronger painkillers. If you qualify, you could help doctors learn the safest way to manage pain after this common injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a broken tibia (shinbone) that is being fixed with a metal rod inside the bone.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You can come back to the hospital for checkups for at least 12 months.
- You do not have a history of stomach bleeding, stroke, or heart attack.
- You do not have severe kidney disease.
- You are not regularly taking NSAID pain relievers (like ibuprofen or naproxen) or using IV drugs.

This study follows people age 18+ who broke the tibia (shin bone) and are at higher risk for infection. It compares a standard internal metal nail to a special coated nail to see which one lowers infection problems and supports healing.
This trial studies a special nail for certain broken shin bones to lower the chance of infection after surgery. If you qualify, the study team will help you receive the antibiotic-coated nail and will follow you closely for about a year.
This Phase 3 study tests a pain medicine plan used after preventive surgery to place a metal rod inside the thigh bone (femur) before a fracture happens. The goal is to find an approach that controls post-surgery pain while being safe for the right patients.
This study looks at what factors predict healing and outcomes for a specific kind of shinbone fracture in the leg growth area. It may help doctors better estimate prognosis and choose care plans for similar fractures.
This study compares two types of metal rods (nails) placed inside the shin bone to fix a broken tibia. One rod is standard and the other allows tiny, controlled movements at the break to see if healing improves.
This trial tests if a nerve block given during surgery for a broken tibia (shin bone) can reduce pain after the operation. It may help you need fewer painkillers and recover more comfortably.
