60 participants in 2 patient groups

Group A

Active Comparator group

Description:

Group (A ) : will receive ultrasound guided pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) followed by spinal anesthesia.

Treatment:

Procedure: pericapsular nerve group block for group A,low dose intravenous Propofol [0.7mg/kg] over 30 seconds for group B

Group B

Active Comparator group

Description:

Group B will receive low dose intravenous Propofol \[0.7mg/kg\] over 30 seconds followed by spinal anesthesia and so far, this is the most common and standard technique to achieve sitting position during spinal anesthesia for patients with hip fractures.

Treatment:

Procedure: pericapsular nerve group block for group A,low dose intravenous Propofol [0.7mg/kg] over 30 seconds for group B
