Peroperative Effect of Regional Anesthesia in Hip Surgery

Comparison of the Peroperative Efficacy of Pericapsular Nerve Group Block and Lumbar Erector Spina Plan Block Applied Preoperatively in Patients Undergoing Hip Fracture Operation

A total of 120 patients scheduled for surgical operation due to hip fracture were divided into two randomized groups. The first group received pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block, while the second group received lumbar erector spinae plane (L-ESP) block prior to the surgery. Subsequently, all patients were positioned in the lateral decubitus position before spinal anesthesia and compared in terms of anesthesia effectiveness through pain scores.

Inclusion Criteria:

- American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA) 2-3 patients undergoing surgery due to hip fracture.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients in whom regional anesthesia is contraindicated.
• Patients who are unable to communicate.
• Patients with a known allergy to local anesthetics.
• Patients with organ failure.
