Brief Summary

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

Prospective observational cohort comparing analgesic efficacy of suprainguinal fascia iliaca block (SFIB) vs pericapsular nerve group block combined with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block (PENG+LFCN) in primary total hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia (n=48). Outcomes include VAS pain at rest and with movement at 3, 12, 24, 48 h; morphine use (0-3, 3-12, 12-24, 24-48 h; total 0-48 h); quadriceps strength at 6 and 24 h; physiotherapy participation at 24 and 48 h; and adverse events within 48 h.

Detailed Description

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

Adults undergoing primary posterolateral THA under general anesthesia were included if they received either SFIB or PENG+LFCN. Pain (VAS at rest and with 45° passive flexion) was recorded at 3, 12, 24, and 48 h. Morphine via PCA was recorded for 0-3, 3-12, 12-24, and 24-48 h, with a 0-48 h total. Quadriceps strength (0-2 scale) was assessed at 6 and 24 h; physiotherapy participation at 24 and 48 h; opioid- or block-related adverse events through 48 h.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

SFIB

Patients undergoing THA who received ultrasound-guided SFIB with 0.25% bupivacaine 40 mL under the fascia iliaca with cranial spread.

No interventions assigned to this group

PENG

Patients undergoing THA who received ultrasound-guided PENG (0.5% bupivacaine 15 mL) at the iliopubic eminence plus LFCN block (0.5% bupivacaine 5 mL) distal to the inguinal ligament.

No interventions assigned to this group
