Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Previous studies have suggested that the PENG block may be superior to the FICB for pain control and results in less thigh motor weakness. The investigators will compare pain control (by difference in mean VAS score at set time points), systemic opioid use (in mean morphine equivalents prior to surgery), and motor function in patients with hip fractures who receive either block in the ED.
