Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To observe the effectiveness of Supra Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block and Femoral Nerve Block under Ultrasound guidance as analgesia before Central neuraxial block in the sitting position for Fracture Neck of Femur Surgery. The following objectives are set. To compare the time required for the onset of sensory block after both techniques.Timepoint: The patient will be assessed for pain with Visual Analogue Scale at 0, 2, 5, 10, 15, 20min, and after giving a sitting position and the time will be noted with Zero being the time of giving block. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1.To identify the dermatomal coverage of the block (femoral, obturator, and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve) after both techniques 2.To assess the adequacy of patient positioning for administering central neuraxial block after both techniques.Timepoint: The patient will be assessed for pain with Visual Analogue Scale at 0, 2, 5, 10, 15, 20min, and after giving a sitting position and the time will be noted with Zero being the time of giving block. | — |
