NCT04984109

Brief Summary

  • This randomized controlled study will be carried out on 60 adult patients undergoing primary total hip replacement in Tanta University Hospitals. All Patients will receive spinal anesthesia with either sham or real US-guided PENG block.
  • The primary outcome will be the time to first request for rescue analgesia. The secondary outcome will be the postoperative Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) score and the total morphine consumption (rescue analgesia) in the first 24 h postoperatively.

Study Arms (2)

Control group

SHAM COMPARATOR

Patients will receive preoperative US-guided will receive sham PENG with an injection of just 1mL saline.

Procedure: Sham PENG block

PENG Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive preoperative US-guided will receive real PENG with an injection of 20mL of bupivacaine 0.25%+ 0.2mg/mL dexamethasone.

Procedure: Real PENG block

Interventions

The regional block will be performed with the patient in the supine position in operative area with adequate groin exposure. The probe will first be placed at the anterior superior iliac spine in transverse plane, and then will be moved caudally to identify anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS). The probe will be then rotated to align the AIIS and iliopubic eminence (IPE). This will reveal the iliopsoas tendon and muscle together with femoral vessels superficially. A 22-G 100-mm echogenic needle will be inserted in-plane from lateral to medial, and the tip will be kept at the midpoint of AIIS and IPE deep to psoas tendon. After lifting of psoas tendon by hydrolocation, the patients in PENG group will receive 1 mL of normal saline.

A 22-G 100-mm echogenic needle will be inserted in-plane from lateral to medial, and the tip will be kept at the midpoint of AIIS and IPE deep to psoas tendon. After lifting of psoas tendon by hydrolocation, the patients in PENG group will receive 20 ml of (0.25%) bupivacaine with 0.2 mg/mL dexamethasone that will be injected in 5 ml aliquots after negative aspiration.
