Brief Summary:
Peripheral nerve blocks are becoming increasingly popular for hip surgery anesthesia. Modern regional anesthesia for major hip surgery includes the use of a single shot and continuous epidural or spinal injections, continuous lumbar plexus blockade and continuous peripheral blockade of the femoral nerve (FN), fascia iliaca (FI) block, 3-in-1 FN block and sciatic nerve. The use of either single shot or continuous peripheral nerve blocks are becoming increasingly popular.
This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided pericapsular nerve group block in hip arthroplasty surgery.
Detailed Description:
Hip joint is richly innervated, and the pain following hip arthroplasty is particularly severe. Effective postoperative analgesic technique especially in an elderly with significant comorbidities is challenging. (1) Peripheral nerve blocks are becoming increasingly popular for hip surgery anesthesia. Modern regional anesthesia for major hip surgery includes the use of a single shot and continuous epidural or spinal injections, continuous lumbar plexus blockade and continuous peripheral blockade of the femoral nerve (FN), fascia iliaca (FI) block, 3-in-1 FN block and sciatic nerve. The use of either single shot or continuous peripheral nerve blocks are becoming increasingly popular. (2) These techniques have shown effective and safe postoperative pain control, resulting in lower opioid consumption, improved earlier rehabilitation and high patient satisfaction. (3) Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been recently recommended by Giron-Arango et al. for use as postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries. It is a new regional anesthesia method based on blocking the articular branches of femoral nerve (FN) and accessory obturator nerve(AON) and obturator nerve in the region between the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and ilio-pubic eminence (IPE).The anterior capsule is the most richly innervated section of the joint suggesting these nerves should be the main targets for hip analgesia.
