Nerve block for safer blood pressure control during hip replacement
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a type of nerve block (sacral canal block) to help manage blood pressure during hip replacement surgery. It aims to see if it can safely lower blood pressure on purpose, which may reduce bleeding and improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 45 years or older.
- Your overall health is rated as ASA II or III (meaning you have mild to serious health problems that are well-controlled).
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 35, which is a measure of weight relative to height.
- You are willing to join the study and sign a consent form.
- You do not have any condition that makes a sacral canal block unsafe for you (such as an infection or bleeding problem at the injection site).
- You can hear and speak normally (or use an interpreter) so you can communicate with the study team.

This trial tests whether a specific nerve block given during planned hip replacement surgery can reduce pain afterward. It may help you use less opioid pain medicine, but you must meet certain safety and medication criteria.
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 early-stage study tests whether a specific nerve block to numb the lower back area can make total hip replacement surgery more comfortable. It looks at patients who are having planned (elective) hip replacement and whether the nerve block is safe and works well.
This trial compares two nerve-block techniques to see which one gives better pain control during and after total hip replacement surgery. It may help you feel more comfortable and possibly reduce the need for pain medicine.
This trial tests whether a nerve block (PENG block) can reduce confusion (delirium) after hip replacement surgery in older adults. It is for people 75+ scheduled for a first-time hip replacement under spinal anesthesia.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after total hip replacement. One block uses a standard numbing medicine, and the other adds a medication (dexmedetomidine) that may extend the pain relief. The goal is to see which approach works better for managing pain after surgery.
