Nerve blocks for pain after hip replacement
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This study compares two types of pain blocks given during hip replacement surgery to see which one provides better pain relief. Participants will receive one of the two blocks along with spinal anesthesia to help manage pain after surgery.
This trial tests a nerve block to reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. It may help you need fewer painkillers and recover more comfortably.
This trial compares three types of nerve blocks to find which provides the best pain relief after a hip replacement. It may help you have less pain and a smoother recovery.
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 compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after a total hip replacement. The goal is to find out which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study tests a special numbing injection (called a PENG block) given around the hip joint to see how well it controls pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement under spinal anesthesia and are in generally good health, this study may help find better ways to manage your post-surgery pain.
