Comparing pain relief after shoulder replacement
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after shoulder replacement surgery: a long-acting numbing medicine (ZYNRELEF) versus a temporary nerve block catheter. It aims to see which provides better pain control and recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You are having your first total shoulder replacement (not a revision or for a fracture)
- You do not have kidney problems (CrCl less than 50)
- Your BMI is 40 or less
- You have not taken opioid painkillers regularly in the last 6 months

This study tests whether adding an extra numbing shot (pectoserratus block) to the standard shoulder block reduces pain after total shoulder replacement. It may help you recover more comfortably and use fewer pain medicines.
This study compares two different strengths of local anesthetic used in a nerve block for shoulder replacement surgery. The goal is to see if one strength helps reduce pain that can come back as the block wears off.
This trial compares two different ways of giving numbing medicine around the shoulder nerve before reverse shoulder replacement surgery. It may help find which method works better for pain control and comfort after surgery.
This trial compares a new long-acting painkiller (Zynrelef) to a standard nerve block for pain after knee replacement surgery. It aims to find which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial tests if a long-lasting numbing medicine (liposome bupivacaine) works better than standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) for pain after shoulder surgery. Both are given as nerve blocks to help you stay comfortable during recovery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after total knee replacement: one uses a long-lasting numbing medicine, the other uses extra medications during nerve blocks. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
