Comparing pain medicines for multiple injuries
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares different pain medicine combinations for people who have been injured in more than one part of their body. It aims to find the safest and most effective way to control pain in the emergency room and during the first days of care.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if buprenorphine, a non-opioid pain medicine, works well for people who have not used opioids before. After ankle fracture surgery, you would get buprenorphine instead of stronger opioids to see if it controls pain just as well with fewer side effects.
This study is looking for biological markers (like blood tests) that can predict how people will respond to pain and opioids after a traumatic injury or surgery. The goal is to help doctors tailor pain treatment to each person.
This study tests two different forms of buprenorphine (a medication for opioid addiction) to see which works better for people who use fentanyl or other strong synthetic opioids. If you are seeking treatment for opioid use, this trial may help you find the most effective option.
This study compares a higher dose of buprenorphine (a medicine that helps stop opioid cravings and withdrawal) to the usual dose, given in the emergency department. It aims to see if the higher dose works better to start treatment for opioid use disorder.
This trial tests a low-dose pain medicine called buprenorphine for people 65 and older who come to the emergency room with a broken bone. It aims to find a safe way to manage pain in older adults.
This trial tests two different pain medicines given after surgery to see which one helps patients recover better and feel better sooner. One is a tablet placed under the tongue, and the other is a standard opioid painkiller.
