NCT06557044

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the analgesic efficacy of the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block during the implantation of hip endoprostheses. The study is designed as a prospective randomized double-blind study and the study participants were randomized into 2 arms and either 20 ml ropivacaine 0.5% (verum group) or 20 ml physiological saline solution (placebo group) will be applied.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of postoperative opioid administration

    The primary objective is to investigate the influence of the PENG block on the need for postoperative ntravenously opioid administration within the first hour in the recovery room.

    60 minutes after arrival in the recovery room

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Quantity of total opioid consumption

    until the evening of the second postoperative day

  • Intensity of postoperative pain

    until the evening of the second postoperative day

  • Intensity of postoperative nausea and vomiting

    until the evening of the second postoperative day

  • Postoperative recovery

    until the evening of the second postoperative day
