comparison of continuous epidural analgesia and ultrasound guided continuous supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block after total hip replacement surgery
Full description
supra-inguinal FICB is a promising safe approach for lumbar plexus that may be useful for analgesia in hip surgeries.In this study the investigators are comparing continuous S-FICB with continuous epidural analgesia after total hip arthroplasty surgeries with the primary aim to assess efficacy of post-operative analgesia, and secondary aim to assess rehabilitation indices, side effects and radiological pattern of local anaesthetic distribution after S-FICB.
