Preventing rebound pain after arm or leg surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a way to prevent rebound pain after orthopedic surgery on the arm or leg when a nerve block wears off. It may help reduce pain and your need for painkillers after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for planned (non-emergency) surgery on an arm or leg.
- You are 18 years or older, and in good enough health (ASA I-III) to undergo surgery.
- You are not allergic to any of the pain medicines used in the study (like ibuprofen, morphine, or ropivacaine).
- You do not take strong painkillers (opioids) regularly for long-term pain.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder, nerve damage in the limb being operated on, or serious liver or kidney problems.

This study tests a method to prevent pain from returning after a nerve block wears off following orthopedic surgery. It may help patients who have surgery on an arm or leg and want to reduce pain after the block ends.
This trial tests two different nerve block techniques to see which provides better pain relief after a second hip replacement surgery. It aims to help patients recover more comfortably.
This trial compares two types of pain relief after a hip replacement: a nerve block (injecting numbing medicine near the hip) versus a small dose of morphine given through a spinal needle. It aims to find out which option works better with fewer side effects.
This trial looks at how well a pain-control plan works after certain orthopedic surgeries and how it affects recovery and patient-reported outcomes. It may help determine what level of pain relief is meaningful to patients after surgery.
This study looks at how "rebound pain" (increased pain when pain medication wears off) affects long-term pain after total knee replacement. Researchers want to understand this connection and potentially improve pain management strategies for knee surgery patients.
This trial tests different doses of morphine given during spinal anesthesia to find the safest and most effective way to control pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a total hip replacement, you may be able to join.
