Nerve blocks for pain relief after knee surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (a standard one and a newer one) to see which provides better pain relief after knee surgery. If you are having knee surgery under spinal anesthesia, you may be able to join.

This study tests if adding an ultrasound-guided nerve block (IPACK) behind the knee to a standard nerve block (adductor canal block) can better control pain after knee tumor surgery. If you are having knee tumor removal and are in fair to poor health, this may help improve your recovery.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks—one that numbs the front of the thigh and one that adds extra numbing behind the knee—to see which provides better pain relief after arthroscopic knee surgery (like ACL or PCL repair). The goal is to help patients have less pain and recover more comfortably.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (iPACK and adductor canal block) to see which provides better pain relief after arthroscopic knee surgery. It may help you have less pain and recover faster.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after total knee replacement surgery. It aims to help patients recover more comfortably.
This trial tests if adding a special nerve block behind the knee (IPACK) to a standard thigh block helps control pain better after total knee replacement. It may lead to less pain and faster recovery.
This trial tests adding an extra nerve block (IPACK) to the usual adductor canal block to see if it improves pain, recovery, and inflammation after total knee replacement surgery.
