Spinal Anesthesia clinical trials and research
As of November 12, 2026, Find a Trial lists 17 Spinal Anesthesia clinical trials that are recruiting, at sites in 5 countries (most in Turkey (Türkiye) (7), Egypt (5), Pakistan (3)). By phase: Phase 4 (3). The most active sponsors are Sanliurfa Mehmet Akif Inan Education and Research Hospital (2), Cairo University (2). There are also 1 NIH-funded research project on Spinal Anesthesia, with $195,696 in listed awards. Every study is explained in plain English.

Newest Spinal Anesthesia clinical trials
All recruiting trials (17)
-
Modified Saddle Block vs Spinal Anesthesia for TURP
This study tests whether a modified saddle block or a standard spinal anesthesia better controls blood pressure during TURP for adults 40–90.
-
Dexamethasone and Spinal Block Duration in Lower Abdominal Surgery
This study tests whether giving dexamethasone before spinal anesthesia can lengthen how long the numbness lasts for adults having lower abdominal surgery.
-
Unilateral vs. Bilateral Spinal Anesthesia for Hip Replacement in Older Adults
This trial tests whether unilateral spinal anesthesia provides better hemodynamic stability than bilateral spinal anesthesia in people 65 and older undergoing hip replacement.
-
Pupil light reflex to predict low blood pressure after spinal anesthesia in cesarean deliveries
Doctors want to see if a quick eye-pupil test done before spinal anesthesia can predict who might develop low blood pressure after a cesarean delivery.
-
Patient-controlled remimazolam sedation under spinal anesthesia for hip replacement
In adults having hip replacement with spinal anesthesia, this study tests whether letting patients control their own sedation with remimazolam works as well as standard clinician-controlled sedation.
-
Anterior Iliac Block for Postoperative Pain and Satisfaction in Inguinal Hernia Surgery
This trial tests whether applying an anterior iliac block after inguinal hernia repair improves how long pain relief lasts and how satisfied patients are.
-
Using preoperative shock indexes to predict low blood pressure after spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery
This study will see if simple blood-pressure-based shock indexes taken before surgery can predict which pregnant people having an elective cesarean with spinal anesthesia will develop low blood pressure after the block.
-
Predicting low blood pressure from spinal anesthesia during cesarean section
This study will test whether body-shape measures (body roundness index and waist circumference) and simple heart/blood pressure indexes can help predict which full-term women having a cesarean with spinal anesthesia will develop low blood pressure.
-
Skin conductance to predict low blood pressure after spinal anesthesia in older urologic cancer patients
This project will try to see if skin conductance monitoring can predict which patients aged 65 and older having urologic cancer surgery with spinal anesthesia will develop low blood pressure.
-
How preoperative anxiety affects vasovagal events during spinal anesthesia
This project will see if higher anxiety before surgery increases the chance of vasovagal events in adults (18–65, ASA I–II) receiving spinal anesthesia.
-
Using femoral vein size to predict low blood pressure after spinal anesthesia in older adults having orthopedic surgery
This test will see if the width of the right common femoral vein on ultrasound can predict drops in blood pressure after spinal anesthesia in people over 60 having elective lower-limb orthopedic surgery.
-
Intrathecal dexmedetomidine plus fentanyl with bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia during above-knee amputation
This trial will test whether adding intrathecal dexmedetomidine to fentanyl and bupivacaine gives better and longer pain relief after above-knee amputation for adults with lower-limb sarcoma.
-
Dexamethasone versus magnesium added to bupivacaine for erector spinae plane block after elective cesarean
This study will test whether adding dexamethasone or magnesium sulfate to bupivacaine in an erector spinae plane block gives better pain relief after elective cesarean under spinal anesthesia.
-
Dexamethasone to prolong spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery
This trial tests whether a single IV dose of dexamethasone given around an elective C-section helps spinal anesthesia and postoperative pain relief last longer than a placebo.
-
General versus spinal anesthesia with local numbing for buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty
This project will see if spinal anesthesia plus local numbing causes less mouth and overall postoperative pain than general anesthesia for adult men having urethroplasty with a buccal (cheek) graft.
-
Understanding nausea and vomiting after elective C-sections under spinal anesthesia
This study looks at how often women feel nauseous or vomit after having a planned C-section with spinal anesthesia and what might cause it.
-
Binaural-beat music during knee replacement with spinal anesthesia
This study will test whether listening to binaural beat music during knee replacement under spinal anesthesia reduces anxiety, pain, and cortisol levels in adults.
NIH-funded research (1)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Comparing spinal anesthesia without opioids to general anesthesia in infants
This study is looking at how using a special type of spinal anesthesia instead of regular general anesthesia can help babies avoid opioids during surgery, with the hope of keeping them safer and supporting their healthy development.

Quick answers
How many Spinal Anesthesia clinical trials are recruiting right now?
17, as of November 12, 2026. We update this list each time we refresh our data from ClinicalTrials.gov.
Where are these trials running?
In 5 countries. The most sites are in Turkey (Türkiye) (7 trials), Egypt (5 trials), Pakistan (3 trials), Belgium (1 trial), South Korea (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
What phases are they in?
Phase 4: 3. Trials with no phase listed are usually device, behavioural or observational studies.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
