Nerve block for pain after shoulder fracture surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a type of numbing injection (nerve block) given before shoulder surgery to control pain while keeping your arm muscles strong. It aims to reduce pain after surgery without making your arm feel weak.

This trial compares three different types of nerve blocks to manage pain after shoulder arthroscopy. The goal is to find which block works best for reducing pain and improving recovery.
This study compares three different nerve blocks to see which one causes less breathing trouble and provides better pain relief after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. It may help patients who are having shoulder surgery and want to avoid side effects like muscle weakness.
This trial tests if a nerve block near the shoulder blade can reduce pain before, during, and after shoulder surgery. It may help patients need less pain medicine and feel more comfortable.
This study tests whether adding a new type of nerve block (a numbing injection near the shoulder blade) during keyhole shoulder surgery gives better pain relief after surgery. If you qualify, you may have this extra block to help manage pain and reduce the need for other painkillers.
This study compares two ways of numbing the shoulder with nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after shoulder surgery. You would receive one of the two nerve-block techniques before your surgery to help manage pain afterward.
