Testing numbing medicine spread in a knee block
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial checks how a numbing medicine moves during a common knee block for surgery. It may help doctors improve pain control after knee operations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for planned knee surgery with general anesthesia.
- You are being treated at our hospital.
- You are receiving a specific numbing block in your thigh (adductor canal block).
- You do not have nerve damage in your leg.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

This study compares two ways of numbing a nerve in your knee to help with pain during knee surgery. Both methods use a small injection near the nerve to stop pain signals.
This trial tests if adding extra nerve blocks (sciatic, BiFeS, or IPACK) to the usual adductor canal block can reduce pain after total knee replacement. The goal is to find a better way to manage pain and improve recovery.
This study compares two different numbing techniques to see which provides better pain control during and after total knee replacement. It may help find a way to reduce pain and improve 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 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 two types of nerve blocks (numbing injections around the knee) to see which works best for pain control after knee replacement surgery. Both approaches use the same anesthesia method, and researchers want to learn if adding an extra nerve block helps reduce pain and improve recovery.
