Nerve Blocks for Hip Surgery Pain Control
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) used during hip surgery to see which one controls pain better after surgery. Both methods are standard care options, and this trial helps doctors understand which works best for hip patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 40 years old or older
- You are having hip surgery that is expected to last 3 hours or less

- You have no current infection or skin problems at the injection site
- You have no previous nerve damage or weakness in your legs

This study compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after a total hip replacement. The goal is to find out which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study tests a special nerve block (PENG block) combined with a numbing medicine injection around the hip joint to provide better pain relief after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip. It aims to see if this approach can reduce pain and the need for strong pain medicines.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block (PENG block) versus injecting anesthetic near the hip. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief.
This trial tests whether combining three different nerve-blocking injections around the hip can reduce pain after hip surgery better than standard pain management. Nerve blocks numb specific areas so you feel less pain during and after surgery.
This trial compares three different numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which provides the best pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It may help older adults with moderate health status who are having hip surgery.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks—one on each side of the hip—to see if using both together provides better pain control after hip replacement surgery. It may help people who are having their first hip replacement with spinal anesthesia.
