PENG vs Femoral Block for Hip Fracture Analgesia (NCT07073209)
PENG vs Femoral Block for Hip Fracture, A Pragmatic Cluster-Randomized Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study aims to compare the Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block with femoral block for hip fracture pain. Participants presenting to the hospital with a diagnosis of hip fracture and consenting to analgesic block will receive either a PENG or femoral block. The choice of block will be dictated by a randomized monthly schedule, and all participants presenting during each four-week period will receive the designated block. A sub-group analysis will be performed to determine any difference in efficacy in participants with intracapsular versus extracapsular fractures.
