Long-acting painkiller for knee replacement recovery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a long-acting painkiller (dinalbuphine sebacate) to see if it can control pain better after total knee replacement surgery. It is for people with osteoarthritis who are having their first knee replacement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 50 and 90 years old
- You have osteoarthritis in your knee and are having a first-time total knee replacement
- You are healthy enough for surgery (ASA class I, II, or III)
- You are not severely obese (BMI over 40)
- You do not have significant liver disease, a cognitive disorder, or certain drug interactions

This trial tests two different numbing medicines for knee replacement surgery. It compares a long-acting numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) with a standard one (ropivacaine) mixed with other drugs to see which provides better pain control. The goal is to find a way to reduce pain and improve recovery.
This Phase 2 study compares two ways of reducing nerve pain after knee replacement surgery (total knee arthroplasty). It looks at whether steroid-enhanced pain medicine works better than a different numbing injection to improve recovery and comfort.
This study tests a long-lasting numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) injected around the knee during total knee replacement surgery. It aims to see if this medicine helps control pain and reduce the need for other painkillers after surgery.
This trial tests whether adding a sedative medicine (dexmedetomidine) to the standard numbing injection around the knee can improve pain control after total knee replacement. It might help you have less pain and need fewer opioids.
This trial tests different doses of a long-acting painkiller (liposomal bupivacaine) injected into a nerve block in the thigh to see which dose works best for pain after knee replacement surgery. It may help you have better pain control and recover faster.
This Phase 2 study compares two ways to reduce pain after total knee replacement (TKA): a steroid-enhanced nerve block versus a numbing shot called Exparel. It aims to see which option improves comfort and recovery after surgery done with spinal anesthesia.
