The Efficacy of Suprainguinal Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block for Analgesia After Elective Total Hip Replacement.

Total hip replacement surgery is one of the most common orthopedic interventions. Proper anaesthesia and adequate analgesia is one of the key interests of attending anaesthetist. Recent studies show that ultrasound guided suprainguinal fascia iliaca compartment block may play a significant role in proper management of pain after these procedures. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical usefulness and compare different methods of anaesthesia for total hip replacement surgery via posterolateral approach.
