NCT ID NCT07516795
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain after hip replacement surgery. Sixty adults will receive either a sacral erector spinae plane block or a fascia iliaca compartment block, both using a numbing medicine through a small tube. The goal is to see which method reduces pain and the need for extra painkillers, and helps patients get moving sooner.
