NCT ID NCT07240961
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether an ultrasound-guided lumbar erector spinae plane (ESP) block can improve pain control after total hip replacement. Sixty adults having hip surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either the nerve block plus standard pain medication or standard medication alone. The main goal is to see if the block reduces the amount of morphine needed after surgery.
