About this study

The ultrasound-guided approach for the blockade of articular branches of femoral and obturator nerves, pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block, is an effective method for postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries. However, it fails to provide cutaneous analgesia on the anterolateral surgical incisional site. This study compares the effects of wound infiltration and lateral femoral nerve blocks in combination with PENG blocks for postoperative pain in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty for coxarthrosis.

Who can participate

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Coxarthrosis
  • Total hip replacement
  • Patients agreed to receive PENG block
  • LFCN or wound infiltration performed combined with PENG blocks

Exclusion criteria

  • Other kinds of hip surgeries
  • Total hip replacement performed for other indications
  • Patients refused to receive PENG block

Treatment and study plan

LFCN

Procedure

LFCN block was performed in combination with PENG block

Wound Infiltration

Procedure

Wound infiltration was performed in combination with PENG block

Primary outcomes

  1. First analgesic demand

    Time frame: 24 hours

    The time interval from PENG blocks to the first analgesic demand.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Opioid consumption

    Time frame: 24 hours

    Total opioid analgesic consumption

  2. Numeric Rating Scale

    Time frame: 24 hours

    The maximum score on a 10cm numeric rating scale: (0 to 10cm) (0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable pain)

  3. Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAID)

    Time frame: 24 hours

    Total NSAID consumption
