Nerve blocks for pain relief after hip replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. If you join, you'll receive one of the two blocks before surgery, and the researchers will track your pain, comfort, and recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You are scheduled for a first-time, planned hip replacement (not emergency or repeat).
- You are in generally good health (aside from your hip problem) — classified as ASA I, II, or III.
- You can communicate in Turkish and understand the study questions.
- You do not have bleeding problems, an active infection at the injection site, or take blood thinners that would make a nerve block unsafe.
- You have not been taking strong painkillers (opioids) daily for 3 months or more.

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 trial tests whether a specific nerve block given during planned hip replacement surgery can reduce pain afterward. It may help you use less opioid pain medicine, but you must meet certain safety and medication criteria.
This trial studies two different nerve block methods to see which provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. If you are having hip surgery and want to help find the best way to manage pain, this study may be for you.
This study tests a long-acting numbing injection around the hip to reduce pain after hip replacement surgery, possibly reducing the need for strong painkillers. It may help you recover more comfortably.
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 study tests whether a nerve block injection in the back (called an erector spinae plane block) can provide better pain relief after a first-time hip replacement. It may help reduce the need for strong painkillers.
