Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the analgesic potential of an neural blockade (Fascia iliaca compartment) with local anaesthetics in patients with hip fracture immediately after arrival in the emergency department.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hip fracture patients have severe pain in the acute phase. Traditional analgesic treatment have consisted of intramuscular morphine with its associated side effects. The trial evaluates the Fascia iliaca compartment compared to regular opioid pain therapy in hip fracture patinets immediately after arrival at the emergency department.
