Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Maximum Pain Score

    A visual analog pain scale anchored by "no pain" (score of 0) and "pain as bad as it could be" or "worst imaginable pain" (score of 100 \[100-mm scale\]) will be used to evaluate pain during 48 h after surgery

    24 hours

  • Total opioids consumption

    Total of Sublingual Sufentanil tablets released

    48 hours

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Time to first opioid

    48 hours

  • Range of hip motion

    24 hours

  • Time to ambulation

    48 hours

  • Quadriceps weakness

    48 hours

  • Incidence of block complications

PENG BLOCK AND WOUND INFILTRATION

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receiving PENG block combined to wound infiltration

Procedure: PENG blockProcedure: Wound Infiltration

WOUND INFILTRATION

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receiving wound infiltration alone

Procedure: Wound Infiltration

Interventions

PENG blockPROCEDURE

After performing spinal anesthesia, PENG block with 20 mL of 0.375 % Ropivacaine will be executed as described by Giron-Arongo et al with a low frequency curvilinear probe. A 22G 80 mm needle (Stimuplex Ultra 360, Braun ) will be used.

PENG BLOCK AND WOUND INFILTRATION

At the end of operation, the surgeon will perform wound infiltration with 20 mL of 0.375 % Ropivacaine.
