About

The purpose of the study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of femoral nerve block and peri-capsular nerve group block administered before spinal anesthesia for positioning to spinal anaesthesia in patients undergoing surgery for hip fracture and to evaluate the efficacy for postoperative analgesia

Full description

Spinal anesthesia is commonly used in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. However the procedure of patient positioning to perform a spinal block is painful and may require the administration of IV analgesics or some regional anesthesia techniques such as femoral nerve block, fascia-iliaca compartment block, peri-capsular nerve group block. At the study, the investigators aimed to compare analgesic efficacy of femoral nerve block and peri-capsular nerve group block administered before spinal anesthesia for positioning to spinal anaesthesia in patients undergoing surgery for hip fracture and to evaluate the efficacy for postoperative analgesia.
