Nerve block for pain after hip replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests if a specific nerve block (the psoas sheath block) helps reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement, you may be able to join and get this extra pain relief.

This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. If you join, you'll receive one of the two blocks before surgery, and the researchers will track your pain, comfort, and recovery.
This study tests whether a nerve block injection in the back (called an erector spinae plane block) can provide better pain relief after a first-time hip replacement. It may help reduce the need for strong painkillers.
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 types of nerve blocks (iliopsoas block and PENG block) to see which one provides better pain relief and recovery after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement with spinal anesthesia, you may be a good candidate.
This trial tests whether a specific nerve block given during planned hip replacement surgery can reduce pain afterward. It may help you use less opioid pain medicine, but you must meet certain safety and medication criteria.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. The blocks are given during the surgery to help reduce pain after the operation.
