New study aims to find best pain relief for seniors after hip surgery

NCT ID NCT07327892

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study will compare three pain management methods after hip surgery in 108 adults aged 65 and older. The methods are a nerve block (PENG block), a local anesthetic injection around the joint (periarticular injection), or both combined. The goal is to see which approach reduces pain and opioid use while helping patients get moving sooner.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block and periarticular injection (local anesthetics)
What this could lead to
If this trial succeeds, it could identify the most effective pain relief strategy for older adults after hip surgery, potentially reducing opioid use and speeding up recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (108 participants) comparing existing techniques, so results may not apply to all patients. The study hasn't started yet, and the benefits of combining methods may be small.
