Official title
Preoperative Analgesia: The Effect of the Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block Administered Preoperatively in Patients With Hip Fractures on Preoperative Analgesic Efficacy, Early Postoperative Discharge, Mortality, and Morbidity.
Overview
The aim is to provide effective preoperative analgesia in patients undergoing surgical procedures due to hip fractures by administering a pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block under ultrasound guidance. This approach seeks to increase patient satisfaction, reduce analgesic requirements, enable earlier discharge, and decrease morbidity and mortality.
Interventions
- Procedure PENG block with 0.25% bupivacaine guided by ultrasound.
PENG (Pericapsular nerve block) is a peripheral nerve block which is performed for patients with hip fractures aimed to prevent preoperative and postoperative pain. It is performed under sterile conditions under ultrasound guideance.
Primary outcome measures
- Preoperative Pain Scores and Opioid Consumption [Time frame: 24 hours preoperatively]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Discharge Time [Time frame: From surgery to discharge up to 30 days]
- Postoperative Mortality and Morbidity [Time frame: 30 days after surgery]
- Opioid Consumption [Time frame: 24 hours preoperatively]
