What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study compares two types of nerve blocks—pericapsular nerve block and anterior quadratus lumborum block—for reducing pain during spinal anesthesia positioning and after surgery in people with hip fractures. Researchers will enroll 64 adults aged 30-85 scheduled for hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see which block provides better pain control and may help patients recover more comfortably.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
nerve block (pericapsular nerve block or anterior quadratus lumborum block)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show which nerve block better reduces pain during spinal anesthesia setup and after hip fracture surgery, potentially improving patient comfort and reducing opioid use.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center observational study with only 64 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. It compares two techniques but does not test a new drug or treatment.
