Numbing injection for pain relief after ankle surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a numbing injection around the ankle nerves before surgery can reduce pain and help you recover faster after ankle arthroscopy. It is for people having this keyhole surgery and staying in the hospital for a short time.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two methods of pain management after ankle surgery: a one-time injection of long-lasting numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) versus a continuous nerve block via a small tube (catheter) placed near the nerve. The goal is to find which approach provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial tests a new way to numb the sciatic nerve for surgeries below the knee, like fixing ankle breaks or correcting toe deformities. It aims to see if it's safe and works well.
This trial compares different anesthesia techniques to see which one helps patients recover faster after minimally invasive ankle surgery. It may help you wake up and feel better sooner after the procedure.
This trial studies a pain-control approach (a kind of nerve block) to see if it can reduce pain after surgery for certain ankle fractures. It may help you feel more comfortable while your ankle heals after an operation.
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 looks at how well a numbing shot around the ankle (called an ankle block) works for pain after leg surgery. It compares people with and without diabetes to see if there are any differences in pain relief.
