Conditions

Health Condition 1: S324- Fracture of acetabulum

Interventions

Intervention1: ultrasound guided suprainguinal fascia iliaca block in acetabular fracture surgery: technique of regional anesthesia for lower limb and hip. Control Intervention1: intravenous fentanyl

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients posted for elective surgical repair of the following acetabular fractures: 1. Anterior column fractures 2. Anterior column - posterior hemitransverse fractures 3.Associated both column fractures Above patients undergoing surgery by following approaches of acetabular fracture repair: 1. Iliofemoral approach 2. Ilioinguinal approach 3. Stoppas approach

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patient refusal 2. Any contraindication to neuraxial block like coagulopathy, local infection, increase ICP etc. 3. Known allergy to local anaesthetic drugs. 4. Peripheral neuropathy 5. Hemodynamically unstable polytrauma patients. 6. Patients who are ASA 4 and above

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To assess and compare the effectiveness of USG guided SIFIB to intravenous fentanyl in facilitating positioning of patients with acetabular fractures for neuraxial blocksTimepoint: quality of positioning 5 mins after intravenous fentanyl and 30 mins after block	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Compare total opioid consumption in both groups. 2. Compare the quality of positioning for neuraxial block. 3. Assess the postoperative patient comfort VAS score in both groups. 4. To study any complications associated with the block Timepoint: pain assessed in terms of VAS score at baseline, 5 mins after intravenous fentanyl, 30 mins after suprainguinal fascia iliaca block, and after final position.	—
