Comparing two numbing methods for knee replacement surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two different numbing techniques to see which provides better pain control during and after total knee replacement. It may help find a way to reduce pain and improve recovery.

This trial tests if adding extra nerve blocks (sciatic, BiFeS, or IPACK) to the usual adductor canal block can reduce pain after total knee replacement. The goal is to find a better way to manage pain and improve recovery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after total knee replacement, using nerve blocks (injections that numb the nerves). One method combines a block near the upper thigh with a block behind the knee; the other combines the same upper-thigh block with a different block around the knee. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief and helps you recover more comfortably.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks—iPACK and BiFeS—to see if they help people feel better and recover faster after total knee replacement surgery. It compares adding these blocks to the usual spinal anesthesia.
This study compares two ways of using numbing injections during total knee replacement surgery to see which better reduces pain. It may help you and your care team understand the safest and most effective pain-control approach.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which provides better pain relief after total knee replacement surgery. If you are 65 or older and having your first knee replacement, you may be able to join.
This trial studies two different nerve block methods to see which provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. If you are having hip surgery and want to help find the best way to manage pain, this study may be for you.
