Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests if a special nerve block called the front block (pericapsular nerve group block) improves recovery after hip replacement surgery. You may be eligible if you are having hip replacement under spinal anesthesia and do not have certain health issues.
