Nerve block comparison for hip fracture surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief during hip fracture repair. You may be eligible if you are 50 or older, have a broken hip, and are scheduled for surgery with spinal anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 50 years old or older.
- You have a broken hip (proximal femoral fracture).
- You are scheduled to have surgery to fix it with spinal anesthesia.
- You are generally healthy or have mild to moderate health conditions (ASA I to III).
- You do not have bleeding problems, infection near the injection site, nerve disease in your legs, or severe obesity.

This trial compares two different pain-control methods (two types of nerve blocks) during hip fracture surgery under general anesthesia. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for pain relief after surgery.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (one near the hip bone, one in the thigh) to see which provides better pain relief for people with a hip fracture. If you qualify, you would receive one of these blocks as part of your standard care.
This study tests whether a nerve block plus local anesthetic can improve pain control during and after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip. It may help reduce the need for stronger pain medications and improve recovery.
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after hip fracture surgery. Both methods numb the area around your hip to reduce pain and may help you recover better.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for managing pain while positioning hip fracture patients before they receive spinal anesthesia. The goal is to find a more comfortable way to prepare for surgery.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to reduce pain before you receive spinal anesthesia for hip fracture surgery. Participants will receive one of the two blocks, and the study will see which provides better pain relief.
