Nerve blocks for pain after hip replacement surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must be in generally good health or have health conditions that are well managed (classified as ASA I–III).
- You must be scheduled for a first-time hip replacement (not a revision) and not because of a broken hip.
- Your surgery must be done with spinal anesthesia (numbing from the waist down).
- You must be able to understand and answer questions about your pain level.

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 study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It aims to find which method reduces pain and improves recovery.
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 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.
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 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.
