Comparing two knee-numbing injections for pain relief
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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 study compares two ways of using numbing injections during total knee replacement surgery to see which better reduces pain. It may help you and your care team understand the safest and most effective pain-control approach.
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 checks how a numbing medicine moves during a common knee block for surgery. It may help doctors improve pain control after knee operations.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which provides better pain relief after total knee replacement surgery. If you are 65 or older and having your first knee replacement, you may be able to join.
This study compares two ways of numbing nerves around the knee during surgery to see which method reduces pain better after the operation. Both methods use safe, well-established pain-relief techniques.
This study compares two different nerve block techniques for pain relief after total knee replacement surgery. It tests whether a block of the nerve in the thigh plus a block around the knee joint works better than the thigh block plus a block of specific knee nerves.
