Ultrasound-guided knee block for osteoarthritis pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether a nerve block around the knee, guided by ultrasound, can reduce pain in people with moderate knee osteoarthritis. It may offer a new way to manage pain without surgery.

This study is testing if a type of ultrasound can help predict how well a nerve block injection will work for people with severe knee osteoarthritis. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for your pain.
This trial compares pulsed radiofrequency therapy versus a targeted nerve pain block to help reduce knee pain from advanced osteoarthritis. You might join if you have knee osteoarthritis in the more severe range (Kellgren-Lawrence grade 3–4) and meet safety requirements.
This trial compares two different nerve blocks to see which one controls pain better after knee replacement surgery. Both are given along with a continuous pain pump, and the goal is to improve recovery with fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways of numbing the nerves around the knee to see which gives better pain relief and improves quality of life for people with knee osteoarthritis. It might help you decide if a nerve block is a good option for your knee pain.
This trial studies whether a targeted, ultrasound-guided “pulsed” radiofrequency treatment can reduce long-lasting knee pain from osteoarthritis. It may help if your knee pain is not improving with common medicines and injections.
This study looks at whether using ultrasound to guide a numbing injection around the knee can improve pain control after knee replacement surgery. It aims to make recovery more comfortable.
