Non-opioid pain medicine plan after hip replacement
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This research study tests a combination of non-narcotic pain medicines (like Tylenol, Celebrex, and others) to see if they can control pain after hip replacement surgery while reducing the need for strong opioids. The goal is to help patients recover with fewer side effects and less risk of opioid dependence.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether a new pain medication called TRD205 works well and is safe for people recovering from hip replacement surgery. If it works, it could offer better pain control after your operation.
This trial tests if using fewer opioids after hip replacement surgery can still control pain well. It uses a specific type of hip replacement called anterior total hip arthroplasty and aims to help patients recover with less reliance on strong pain medicines.
This study compares two common numbing medicines used during hip replacement surgery to see which one provides better pain relief after surgery. You'll receive spinal anesthesia (numbing injected near your spine) with either ropivacaine or bupivacaine, and researchers will track how long the pain relief lasts.
This study compares different ways to manage pain during and after hip replacement surgery in older adults. Researchers will test whether a spinal injection with morphine works better than a nerve block (with or without a steroid), aiming to find the approach that gives the best pain relief with fewer side effects.
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.
This study looks at how much pain medicine (opioids) people actually need after hip arthroscopy and what factors may affect it. It may help improve safer, more personalized pain control after surgery.
