NCT06001996

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to apply pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block or fascia iliaca plan block using ultrasonography to patients who will undergo hip fracture surgery, while giving sitting position before spinal anaesthesia and to reduce postoperative pain complaints. Thanks to these blocks, it is aimed to reduce pain complaints and the need for morphine-derived painkillers before and after surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Assessment of pain level

    Assessment of pain level with the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) : The 11-point numerical scale ranges from '0' representing one pain end (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain end (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable").

    1: measured in neutral position before the block. 2: measured with 15 degrees elevation of the affected limb before the block.3: Measured in spinal positioning. 4: Measured between 0-2 hours postoperatively. 5: Measured between 2-8 hours postoperatively

  • Evaluation of ease of positioning

    It was determined by means of a scale scored from 0-3 (0=no positioning, 1=standing in abnormal posture due to pain and needing support for positioning 2=mild discomfort but no need for support for positioning 3=able to position on their own without pain).

    Procedure (at the stage of introduction of spinal anaesthesia)

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Agitation assessment

    During positioning for spinal anaesthesia procedure

  • mean blood pressure

    Intraoperative (1- Baseline 2- During spinal block 3- 5th minutes after spinal block 4- Every 10 minutes during the operation 5- Skin closure)

  • Heart rate

    Intraoperative (1- Baseline 2- During spinal block 3- 5th minutes after spinal block 4- Every 10 minutes during the operation 5- Skin closure)

  • Tramadol consumption after surgery

    24 hours postoperatively

  • Time of first analgesia use

    up to 24 hours (Duration of the first analgesic requirement after surgery (in hours))

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block

Group 1:Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block: Using an in-plane approach with ultrasonographic imaging, the block needle reaches the fascial plane between the psoas muscle and the upper pubic ramus, and patients injected with local anesthetic solution. * After the patients were sedated with intravenous 1 mg midazolam and 50 mcg fentanyl in the preoperative preparation room, 15 ml of 0.375% bupivacaine was administered to the fractured hip side under ultrasound guidance. * After the block application, the patient will be taken to the operating room and standard spinale anaesthesia will be applied. * Each patient will receive 15 ml of 0.375% bupivacaine 0.375% on the side of the broken hip only one time approximately 15-20 minutes before the operation. * Plane block applications will be applied only once in the preoperative period * Plane block applications will be performed by anaesthesiologists with at least 5 years of experience

Procedure: Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block

Suprainguinal fascia iliaca plane block

Group 2: Suprainguinal fascia iliaca plane block: Patients in whom the needle entered in plane from the caudal end of the ultrasound probe passes through the musculus iliacus and fascia iliaca and local anesthetic solution has been injected immediately under the fascia. After the patients were sedated with intravenous 1 mg midazolam and 50 mcg fentanyl in the preoperative preparation room, 15 ml of 0.375% bupivacaine was administered to the fractured hip side under ultrasound guidance. After the block application, the patient will be taken to the operating room and standard spinale anaesthesia will be applied. Each patient will receive 15 ml of 0.375% bupivacaine 0.375% on the side of the broken hip only one time approximately 15-20 minutes before the operation. * Plane block applications will be applied only once in the preoperative period * plane block applications will be performed by anaesthesiologists with at least 5 years of experience

Procedure: Suprainguinal fascia iliaca plane block

Interventions

Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block: Using an in-plane approach with ultrasonographic imaging, the block needle reaches the fascial plane between the psoas muscle and the superior pubic ramus and local anaesthetic solution is injected.

Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block

Suprainguinal fascia iliaca plane block: The needle entering in plane from the caudal end of the ultrasound probe passes through the m. sartorius and into the musculus iliacus and fascia iliaca reaches. The fascia iliaca is passed with the needle and local anaesthetic solution is injected immediately under the fascia.
