Brief Summary

Hip fractures are morbid conditions, especially in elderly patients, and their treatment is usually surgical. Pericapsular nerve group block is a newly defined block and targets the hip capsule. The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the perioperative analgesic efficacy of PENG blocks applied in two different volumes in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery under spinal anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain scores on the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    Changes in Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at rest and on movement will be recorded at intervals. NRS is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity in adults. The NRS is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable").

    30 minutes after intervention (PENG block) ]

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Duration of spinal anesthesia performance

    up to ten minutes

  • Quality of patient's position

    up to ten minutes

  • analgesic consumption

    24 hours

  • Quality of recovery 15 scale

    24 hours after surgery

  • Quadriceps weakness

    postoperative 6th and 24th hours

Study Arms (2)
