Comparing two numbing shots for pain after knee replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
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 knee after replacement surgery. One uses a continuous nerve block in the thigh, and the other adds an extra injection behind the knee to see if it improves pain relief and recovery.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after knee replacement surgery. If you qualify, you'll receive one of these blocks to help manage your pain after the operation.
This study compares two ways of numbing the thigh area (called a nerve block) before a double knee replacement, to see which one gives better pain relief and recovery. You will receive one method for one knee and the other method for the other knee, so you can help doctors find the best approach.
This trial compares two ways of numbing a knee area during planned knee replacement surgery: a nerve block alone versus a nerve block plus additional numbing medicine near the back of the knee. It may help doctors find which approach improves pain control and recovery while keeping side effects low.
This study tests two different nerve-block techniques to see which provides better pain control after total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to help you recover more comfortably.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after knee replacement surgery. Participants will receive one of the two blocks and use a patient-controlled pain pump, and the study will track their pain levels and recovery.
