MRI study of pain-blocking injection for hip replacement
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scans to see where a pain-blocking injection spreads in the hip area during a nerve block. It may help improve pain control for people having hip replacement surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have a total hip replacement surgery.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are in overall good health (ASA I–III).
- You are willing to have an MRI scan before your surgery.
- You do not have an allergy to local anesthetics (pain-blocking medicines).
- You do not have an infection where the injection would be given.
- You do not have claustrophobia (fear of enclosed spaces).
- You do not have a pacemaker or other metal device that is not safe for MRI.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether adding an extra nerve block (called a PPD block) to a standard PENG nerve block provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It may help reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after the operation.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (iliopsoas block and PENG block) to see which one provides better pain relief and recovery after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement with spinal anesthesia, you may be a good candidate.
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 trial studies whether one type of numbing injection (a PENG block) works better than another method (local anesthetic injected into the surgical area) to control pain during and after total hip replacement. It may help choose the best pain plan for people having a specific surgical approach.
This study compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after a total hip replacement. The goal is to find out which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study tests two different amounts of a numbing medicine injected around the hip nerves before hip replacement surgery, to see if adding a steroid helps reduce pain after surgery. It aims to improve pain control and recovery.
