New study aims to find best pain relief for hip surgery patients
NCT ID NCT07329829
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two different nerve-block methods to control pain after hip surgery. One group gets a standard block that numbs the hip joint, while the other gets an extra block for the thigh skin. The goal is to see which method reduces pain, lowers the need for pain medicine, and helps patients recover faster. 72 adults having hip surgery through a side incision will take part.
