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 study tests a special numbing medicine injection (called a pericapsular nerve group block) to see how well it controls pain during and after hip fracture surgery. It might help people have less pain and recover more comfortably.
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 a special nerve block (PENG block) combined with a numbing medicine injection around the hip joint to provide better pain relief after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip. It aims to see if this approach can reduce pain and the need for strong pain medicines.
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 study compares two types of nerve blocks given before spinal anesthesia for hip fracture surgery to see which provides better pain relief. It may help patients experience less pain during the procedure.
