Comparing two types of nerve blocks for hip replacement pain
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two different nerve block methods to see which provides better pain relief for people having a partial hip replacement. It will help doctors choose the best way to manage pain after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 90 years old.
- You have a broken hip (specifically a type called intracapsular neck of femur fracture).
- You are scheduled for a partial hip replacement (hemiarthroplasty).
- You are generally healthy or have mild to moderate health issues (ASA I, II, or III).
- You are not allergic to numbing medications and do not have an infection where the injection would be given.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder or take blood thinners that cannot be stopped.

This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for managing pain while positioning hip fracture patients before they receive spinal anesthesia. The goal is to find a more comfortable way to prepare for surgery.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks (SFIB and PENG) to find which provides better anesthesia during total hip replacement. It may help you understand which pain control approach could work best for your surgery.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: a targeted nerve block around the hip versus a small dose of morphine given through the spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block near the hip (PENG block) versus a small dose of morphine given through the spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method helps patients recover better and have less pain in the first days after surgery.
This study tests whether adding an extra nerve block (called a PPD block) to a standard PENG nerve block provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It may help reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after the operation.
This study compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after a total hip replacement. The goal is to find out which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
