Brief Summary

Early postoperative rehabilitation is an important issue for total hip arthroplasty, especially in older patients. This retrospective clinical trial is to assess the impact of peripheral nerve block anesthesia versus general anesthesia in older patients' early recovery outcomes after total hip arthroplasty.

Conditions

Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA); Femoral Neck Fractures

Keywords

Total hip arthroplasty; peripheral nerve block anesthesia; QoR-40 score

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• postoperative QoR-40 scores

  1-day and 3-month

Study Arms (2)

peripheral nerve block group

Other: No Intervention: Observational Cohort

general anesthesia group

Other: No Intervention: Observational Cohort

Interventions

No Intervention: Observational Cohort OTHER

This study is a observational cohort study, and we have no intervention.

general anesthesia group; peripheral nerve block group

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 60 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Older patients who visited Renji Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University school of medicine for total hip arthroplasty were enrolled between 11/2020 and 12/2024.

You may qualify if:

• patients aged over 60 years; 2. patients underwent total hip replacement; 3. the surgery was done with ultrasound-guided nerve block alone or under general anesthesia.

You may not qualify if:

• patients who failed to the nerve block and were changed to general anesthesia for the operation; 2. patients who lost contact 3 months after surgery.
