Brief Summary
This prospective randomized controlled study is aimed to determine the advantages of post-admission fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) in geriatric hip fracture surgery combination with multimodal analgesia compared with no post-admission FICB. The primary outcome is incidence of delirium during hospital admission. Secondary outcomes are incidence of delirium at hospital discharge, pre- and post-operative pain intensity, peri-operative complications, opioid-related side effects, post-operative complications and length of hospital stay, and morbidities and mortality (in-hospital and 30 days).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
In-hospital Delirium
Incidence of delirium using Nursing Delirium Screening Scale (NU-DESC) Thai version plus backward counting 30-1. Total Scale 11 ( \> or = 2 means delirium). The patient will be assessed once a day in the morning period.
In hospital admission, assess up to 30 days
Secondary Outcomes (11)
Preoperative pain score
48 hours after hospital admission
Post-operative pain score
Until postoperative 72 hours
Preoperative morphine consumption
48 hours after hospital admission
Postoperative morphine consumption
Until postoperative 72 hours
Major adverse cardiac events
In hospital admission, up to 30 days
- +6 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Post-admission FICB
EXPERIMENTALPost-admission FICB, drug 0.33% bupivacaine 30 ml + Pre-operative FICB 0.33% bupivacaine 30 ml. Peri-operative pain management protocol : paracetamol + opioid.
Only preoperative FICB
NO INTERVENTIONNo post-admission FICB + Pre-operative FICB 0.33% bupivacaine 30 ml. Peri-operative pain management protocol : paracetamol + opioid.
Interventions
Post-admission supra-inguinal FICB in hip fracture patient with 0.33% bupivacaine 30 ml
