Comparison of Pericapsular Nerve Block and Iliopsoas Fascial Plane Block Effects on Postoperative Pain and Motor Weakness in Hip Surgery
This prospective randomized interventional study aims to compare the effects of two peripheral nerve blocks, the periencapsular nerve block (PENG) and iliopsoas block (IPB), on analgesia and motor function after hip surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are the effectivity of postoperative pain management the preservation of motor movement. Participants will receive standardized general anesthesia and postoperative PENG or IPB in either Group. Researchers will compare the total amount of rescue analgesia and numeric rating scale with accompanying evaluating motor function at the same time intervals within 24 hour.
• Patients eligible for inclusion in this study were those aged 18 to 90 years who had undergone total hip arthroplasty surgery and had an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status classification of I to III and body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kg/m2.
