New nerve block could help hip surgery patients get back on their feet faster
NCT ID NCT06183528
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a special nerve block (PENG block) given before hip replacement surgery can help reduce pain, lower the need for strong painkillers, and help patients get moving sooner. About 60 adults aged 40-85 who are having hip replacement will take part. The goal is to see if this approach leads to a smoother and faster recovery.
