Brief summary
Prospective observational cohort comparing analgesic efficacy of suprainguinal fascia iliaca block (SFIB) vs pericapsular nerve group block combined with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block (PENG+LFCN) in primary total hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia (n=48). Outcomes include VAS pain at rest and with movement at 3, 12, 24, 48 h; morphine use (0-3, 3-12, 12-24, 24-48 h; total 0-48 h); quadriceps strength at 6 and 24 h; physiotherapy participation at 24 and 48 h; and adverse events within 48 h.
Detailed description
Adults undergoing primary posterolateral THA under general anesthesia were included if they received either SFIB or PENG+LFCN. Pain (VAS at rest and with 45° passive flexion) was recorded at 3, 12, 24, and 48 h. Morphine via PCA was recorded for 0-3, 3-12, 12-24, and 24-48 h, with a 0-48 h total. Quadriceps strength (0-2 scale) was assessed at 6 and 24 h; physiotherapy participation at 24 and 48 h; opioid- or block-related adverse events through 48 h.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analogue Scale scores | In the 48 hours following surgery | Postoperative Visual Analogue Scale scores ( Minimum of 0 and maximum of 10 with higher scores indicative of more severe pain) will be measured at rest and 45 degrees passive flexion at 3, 12, 24 and 48th hours postoperatively |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Opioid consumption | In the 48 hours following surgery | Opioid consumption during 0-3,12-24, 24-48 hours and cumulative opioid consumption at 48h will be recorded following surgery |
| Quadriceps weakness | In the 48 hours following surgery | Quadriceps weakness will be assessed at 6 and 24th hours after surgery. The patient will be asked to extend the knee with the hip flexed at 45 degrees. Quadriceps strength will be graded according to the following: Grade 0: No extension, Grade 1: Extension against gravity but not against resistance, Grade 2: Extension against gravity and resistance. |
| Ability to perform physiotherapy | In the 48 hours following surgery | Ability to perform physiotherapy and whether the inability to perform physiotherapy was due to pain or motor weakness will be recorded by the physiotherapist at 24 and 48 hours after surgery |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Adverse effects | In the 48 hours following surgery | Any occurring adverse effects due to opioid use or nerve block will be recorded should they occur. |
