Clonidine in nerve block for umbilical hernia repair
Part of Genetic & congenital, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if adding clonidine to a numbing injection (nerve block) improves pain control after outpatient umbilical hernia repair. It aims to reduce the need for pain medicines and enhance recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You are scheduled for same-day surgery to fix an umbilical hernia
- Your hernia is small to medium (≤ 4 cm in size)

This study tests whether adding either of two calming medicines, dexmedetomidine or clonidine, to the spinal anesthesia used for cesarean delivery can improve pain control and reduce side effects. If you are having a cesarean, you may feel calmer and more comfortable during and after the procedure.
This study tests whether adding certain medicines (buprenorphine, clonidine, and a steroid) to an arm “nerve block” during shoulder surgery can help the numbness last longer and improve comfort afterward. It is for adults having shoulder arthroscopy and compares how long the nerve block works.
This study tests adding a medicine called clonidine to a shoulder nerve block to see if it improves pain relief after keyhole shoulder surgery. It compares two ways of giving the block to find which one works better.
This study compares two extra medicines added to the standard numbing medication used for a nerve block during inguinal hernia repair. The goal is to see which medicine provides better pain relief after surgery, while you are under spinal anesthesia (numbness from the waist down).
This study compares three types of ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to see which one provides the best pain relief for children after umbilical hernia repair. The goal is to find a safe and effective way to manage pain in young patients.
This study compares two ways of numbing pain after open hernia surgery: a nerve block or injecting pain medicine into the surgical cut. Participants will be in spinal anesthesia and will receive one of these methods to see which provides better pain relief.
