Sciatic nerve block study for lower leg surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to numb the sciatic nerve for surgeries below the knee, like fixing ankle breaks or correcting toe deformities. It aims to see if it's safe and works well.

This trial compares two ways to manage pain after lower limb injury surgery: using a combination of different pain medicines versus a nerve block injection. It aims to find which approach provides better pain control.
This trial tests if an ultrasound-guided nerve block can provide better pain relief for sciatica compared to standard care. If you have severe leg pain from sciatica, this study might help you find effective pain control.
This study tests whether a numbing injection around the ankle nerves before surgery can reduce pain and help you recover faster after ankle arthroscopy. It is for people having this keyhole surgery and staying in the hospital for a short time.
This study tests a nerve-numbing injection (parasacral ischial plane block) given before lower leg surgery to reduce pain. Researchers want to see if this method works well for patients having planned surgery on their legs, hips, or thighs.
This trial tests a new way to secure a nerve block catheter for pain relief during and after a planned leg amputation above the knee. If you are scheduled for this procedure, you may be able to join.
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.
