Pain block after spinal surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a numbing injection near the spine to see if it reduces long-term pain after back surgery. It may help patients who are having elective lumbar spinal surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You are having planned (not emergency) lower back surgery.
- You are in good general health (classified as ASA I-III).
- You are not currently taking strong pain medicines (opioids) on a regular basis.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder or an infection at the injection site.

This study tests a numbing injection near the spine (retrolaminar block) to reduce pain after lower back surgery with hardware. It could help you use less pain medicine and recover more comfortably.
This study compares two pain-relief injections (nerve blocks) given before chest surgery to see which one works better for pain right after surgery and for long-term pain. It aims to help reduce pain and improve recovery.
This study tests whether an ultrasound-guided numbing injection near the hip area can provide better pain relief after lower back surgery. If you qualify, you may receive this injection to help control pain after your operation.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (injections that numb the back) to see which one gives better pain relief after lumbar spine fusion surgery. Both blocks aim to reduce pain and improve recovery, and you will be randomly assigned to one of them.
This study tests whether a numbing injection (called an ESP block) given before spinal fusion surgery reduces pain and helps you recover faster. If you are having neck or lower back fusion, this could help you manage pain with fewer strong opioids.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks given before lumbar spine surgery to see which one reduces pain and the need for opioid painkillers after surgery. If you're having elective lower back surgery, this could help you recover with less pain and fewer side effects.
