Brief Summary:
This prospective, randomized, single-blinded study compares the postoperative analgesic efficacy of the Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block and Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) in hip surgeries under spinal anesthesia. the study focuses on time to first rescue analgesia and total analgesic consumption within the first 48 hours postoperatively in patients over 40 years undergoing elective hip surgery. Ninety patients will be randomized into two groups (PENG or QLB) using a sealed envelope method. The study will assess pain scores, opioid consumption, and side effects, hypothesizing that both blocks provide effective analgesia but seek to identify which offers superior efficacy. Statistical analysis will be performed with SPSS, aiming to contribute valuable insights into analgesic techniques for hip surgeries.
Detailed Description:
This is a prospective, randomized single-blinded study comparing the postoperative analgesic efficacy of Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block and Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) in hip surgeries performed under spinal anesthesia. The study aims to evaluate key outcomes such as the time to first rescue analgesia and total analgesic consumption within the first 48 hours postoperatively. The primary population includes patients over 40 years undergoing elective hip surgery with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. ninety patients will be divided into two groups, receiving either QLB or PENG block, using a sealed envelope randomization method.
PENG block targets specific nerves to provide analgesia without motor block, preserving motor function. QLB involves injecting a local anesthetic into the fascia near the quadratus lumborum muscle to block thoracoabdominal nerves and provide broad analgesia. Data on pain scores (NRS), opioid consumption, and side effects will be collected at different time points.
The study hypothesizes that both blocks can provide effective postoperative analgesia, with potential benefits such as reduced opioid consumption , but aims to determine which block is superior in efficacy.
The primary aim of this study was to compare the effect of an anterior QLB and PENG block on total opioid analgesic consumption within the first 48 hours postoperatively. The secondary aims were to compare the resting and dynamic NRS scores at 2, 12, 24 and 48 hours postoperatively, the time to first rescue analgesia, and side effects such as nausea, vomiting and quadriceps weakness.
Statistical analysis will be conducted using SPSS, and findings will contribute to the literature on analgesia techniques for hip surgeries.
