Ultrasound-guided Supra-inguinal Fascia Iliaca compartment Block (SIFCB) and Pericapsular Nerve Group Block (PENG) are increasingly being used for postoperative analgesia for hip surgery. The postoperative analgesic efficacy of SIFCB added to PENG block in elderly hip fracture patients will be evaluated. Postoperative opioid consumption and quality of recovery will also be evaluated.
The study was conducted as a retrospective cohort feasibility design within a tertiary hospital. Patient records and electronic data systems were used to gather the required data for analysis. Before surgery, a carefully selected cohort of patients who underwent PENG block and PENG block added SIFCB were included in the study.
