Brief Summary: This clinical study compares two types of nerve blocks used to control pain in adult patients undergoing surgery on the upper (proximal) or middle (midshaft) part of the femur (thigh bone). The two blocks being studied are the Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block and the Fascia Iliaca Compartment (FIC) block. Both techniques are commonly used in hospitals to reduce postoperative pain.

The goal is to determine which nerve block provides more effective pain relief, reduces the need for opioid medications, and supports faster recovery in patients following femur surgery. Results from this study may improve pain management strategies for similar procedures in the future.

Adults scheduled for proximal or midshaft femur surgery may be eligible to participate. Eligibility is determined based on clinical criteria reviewed by the study team.Administration of one of the two nerve blocks before surgery.Standard surgical and postoperative care.

Monitoring of pain levels at specific time points after surgery

Recording of opioid medication usage

Evaluation of patient satisfaction and any side effects related to the nerve block

Duration:

The intervention (nerve block) is administered once before surgery. Data collection continues during the immediate postoperative period and for a short time following surgery to assess outcomes.

Both nerve blocks are considered safe and are regularly used in clinical practice.

All procedures are performed by qualified clinicians, and safety monitoring is conducted throughout the study.

Participants may experience improved pain relief and reduced need for opioid medications. While direct benefit cannot be guaranteed, information gained from the study may help improve pain management for future patients undergoing similar surgeries.

Participation in the study is completely voluntary. Patients may choose not to participate or may withdraw from the study at any time without affecting the quality of their medical care.
