Brief Summary

The pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) is a regional anaesthetic technique that was developed in 2018, primarily for total hip arthroplasties (THA) as a postoperative analgesia modality with motor sparing benefits. The block is thought to provide more complete analgesia to the hip by depositing local anaesthetic within the myofascial plane of the psoas muscle and superior pubic ramus. In this study, the investigators will assess the effect of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block on pain control in patients with proximal femur fracture in the emergency department. The Control group will receive morphine as regular patient control analgesia (PCA) The interventional group will receive PENG block before being attached to regular morphine PCA

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • morphine consumption

    compare the total morphine consumption in milligrams that is given by patient-controlled analgesia device (PCA)

    immediately at the end of 24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Numeric rating scale (NRS)

    immediately after starting morphine infusion 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24 hours at rest

  • Incidence of nausea and vomiting

    immediately after starting morphine infusion 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24 hours at rest

Study Arms (2)

PENG block+ morhine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

the participants will receive PENG block before being attached to morphine PCA

Procedure: Pericapsular nerve group blockDrug: Morphine Sulfate

MORPHINE

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The participants will be given morphine PCA without PENG block

Drug: Morphine Sulfate

Interventions

patients will receive pericapsular nerve group block

PENG block+ morhine

morphine will be given to both groups as patient-controlled analgesia PCA

MORPHINEPENG block+ morhine
