Comparing two nerve blocks for pain relief after second hip replacement
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of numbing the hip area to manage pain after a second hip replacement. Both methods use local anesthetics (pain-relieving injections) but target different nerves, and the aim is to see which provides better pain relief, reduces the need for morphine, and helps you recover more comfortably.

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.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block near the hip (PENG block) versus a small dose of morphine given through the spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method helps patients recover better and have less pain in the first days after surgery.
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 trial compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: a targeted nerve block around the hip versus a small dose of morphine given through the spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: one uses a spinal injection with morphine, and the other uses a nerve block near the hip. The nerve block may include an extra medicine called dexamethasone to see if it improves pain relief.
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.
