Summary

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of preoperative ultrasound-guided suprainguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (SFICB) and pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) in preventing positioning pain during spinal anesthesia in patients who are scheduled for surgery due to hip fracture.

Detailed description

Patients to whom an analgesic block was placed (either PENG or SIFI compartment analgesic block) to ameliorate positioning pain during spinal anesthesia for hip fracture surgery will be enrolled after written consent is obtained. Patients will be asked to report their pain intensity while sitting and their sitting angle will be measured. Patients will be observed for any possible complications( LAST, allergic reactions, hypotension, bradycardia). Pain intensity will then again be questioned postoperatively along with analgesic consumption at the 24th hour. Patients will be arranged into two cohorts according to the block (PENG vs SIFI) and the data obtained will be compared between two cohorts.

Conditions

• Hip Fractures
• Acute Post Operative Pain
• Nerve Block
• Spinal Anesthesia
