Lidocaine patch to prevent nerve pain after spine fracture
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a medicated patch (lidocaine plaster 5%) applied to the skin can help prevent nerve pain after a recent spine fracture due to osteoporosis. It aims to reduce pain and improve recovery.

This Phase 3 study tests whether applying a healing material called platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) around the nerve during disc herniation surgery can reduce leftover nerve pain afterward. If you qualify, your team will compare pain intensity between standard care and PRF during the operation.
This trial tests a 60-day nerve stimulation treatment to reduce pain and improve mobility after a recent spine fracture caused by osteoporosis. It may help patients who still have significant pain despite over-the-counter pain relievers.
This study tests whether giving a pain-relieving medication called lidocaine through an IV during arm fracture surgery can reduce how much opioid pain medication (like morphine) children need after surgery. The goal is to help manage pain better while using fewer opioids.
This trial tests if a nerve block given during surgery for a broken tibia (shin bone) can reduce pain after the operation. It may help you need fewer painkillers and recover more comfortably.
This early-stage study tests a device that uses sound to reduce pain from a bone fracture and improve daily quality of life. If you have mild-to-moderate fracture pain and can follow the device routine, you may be able to try this treatment while avoiding other pain medicines and fracture-area therapies.
This trial tests if a procedure called vertebroplasty (injecting bone cement into a fractured spine bone) relieves pain better than a sham (fake) procedure. It is for people with painful spine fractures caused by osteoporosis (weak bones) that started within the last three months.
