Comparing two nerve blocks for kids' hip surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests two types of pain-relieving nerve blocks for children having hip surgery. One uses a PENG block with LFCB, the other an ESP block; the goal is to see which provides better pain control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 2 and 16 years old.
- They must be scheduled for elective hip surgery, like an osteotomy or hip reconstruction.
- Their overall health should be stable (ASA class I, II, or III).
- You (the parent or guardian) must sign a consent form allowing them to join.

This study tests a special nerve-blocking technique (PENG block) to manage pain during hip surgery in children ages 3–8. Researchers measure immune markers in the blood to understand how well this pain-relief method works and how it affects the body's healing response.
This trial compares two pain-relief methods after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block (numbing the hip area) versus a numbing injection into the wound. The goal is to see which provides better pain control.
This study tests two different types of local numbing medicine (with and without extra additives) for a nerve block called PENG block in older adults having hip surgery. The goal is to find which method controls pain better and reduces the need for strong pain relievers.
This trial compares three different numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which provides the best pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It may help older adults with moderate health status who are having hip surgery.
This trial tests three ways of doing a PENG block (a type of pain relief injection for hip surgery) with or without added medications (adjuvants) to see which works best for older adults. It aims to improve pain control and reduce the need for other pain medicines after surgery.
This study compares three different ways to manage pain after hip surgery in older adults. One group gets a nerve block behind the hip, another gets the block plus a numbing injection around the joint, and the third gets only the numbing injection. The goal is to find the best method to reduce pain and help you recover more comfortably.
