Comparing two nerve blocks for hernia surgery pain relief
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (anterior iliac block and ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric block) to see which provides better pain relief after inguinal hernia surgery. If you are having this surgery, joining could help doctors understand the best way to manage your pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a nerve-numbing injection (anterior iliac block) to help reduce pain after inguinal hernia repair surgery. Researchers want to see if it improves pain control and your satisfaction with the procedure.
This trial tests which nerve block works better for pain after open inguinal hernia repair. It compares a block in the lower back (quadratus lumborum) with a block in the groin area (combined groin nerves) to see which provides better pain relief.
This trial compares two nerve-block techniques (Quadratus Lumborum block vs. Transversalis Fascia block) to control pain after inguinal hernia surgery. It aims to find which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
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.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (injections near the nerves) to treat chronic groin pain after hernia surgery. The goal is to find which block provides better pain relief.
This trial compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given before hernia surgery to see which one works better for pain after the operation. The blocks target muscles around the belly area to help you feel less pain and recover more comfortably.
