This trial tests a cold treatment called cryoneurolysis to reduce pain after knee replacement surgery. It may help you move better and use less pain medication.
This study tests if freezing nerves (cryoneurolysis) before hip or knee replacement surgery can reduce pain and opioid use. It is for people already scheduled for surgery who take daily pain medication.
This trial tests if freezing a nerve near the shoulder before surgery can reduce pain after a reverse total shoulder replacement. It may help you recover with less discomfort.
This trial tests if a nerve block given a few weeks before knee replacement surgery can improve pain and function after the operation. It is designed for people who have certain risk factors that might make recovery harder.
This trial tests if a special cold treatment (cryoablation) can help reduce pain or improve recovery for people getting knee replacement surgery for arthritis. It might offer an extra option to feel better after the procedure.
This trial tests a cold therapy approach (cryopressotherapy) to improve recovery after total knee replacement. It may help reduce pain and swelling so you can move better sooner.
