Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome defined for the study is Quality of recovery QoR-15.Timepoint: Preoperative, postoperative 24 hours and 48 hours

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcomes for the study are: Time taken to administer the block, Postoperative VAS score on movement and rest, number of patients requiring additional analgesia, total 24 hour opioid consumption, WHO disability assessment schedule, modified frailty score, prevalence of delirium, mortality, morbidity, total hospital stay and side effects of techniques, if any.Timepoint: VAS score both on rest and movement will be noted at T 0 , T 1 (after 4 hour),T 2 (8 hour),T 3 (12 hour),T 4 (24 hour),T 5 (48 hour) and T 6 (72 hour). Postoperative delirium will also be assessed on postoperative day 0,1,2 and 7 Postoperative morbidity survey will be measured postoperatively on postoperative day 1 till time of discharge. On 30 th day, patient will again be assessed for any disability, frailty, morbidity and mortality.
