Brief summary

The aim is to clinical trials compare the lumbar plexus block method with the erector spinae plan block method in terms of analgesic efficacy and possible complications. İn patients for femur fracture surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. is erector spinae plane block as effective as lumbar plexus block for postoperative analgesia in femur fractures? 2. Is erector spinae plane block effective for reducing opioid consumption compared to lumbar plexus block?

Intervention model description

Group 1: The patients in the first group (ESP Group) will be applied ultrasound guided ESP block at the lateral position at the end of the surgery. ESP will be performed with a posterior approach, under ultrasound guidance, by imaging the muscles and the needle. Group 2: At the end of the surgery, patients in the second group (LP Group) will have an appropriate level of LP block with ultrasound guidance and, if necessary, using a neurostimulator.
