Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate whether the association between BNCFL and PENG block promotes postoperative analgesia to movement equivalent to or superior to SIFIB and MORFIT, in fractures of the proximal end of the femur. For this, pain on movement will be measured at 6, 12 and 24, 30, 36, 42 and 48 hours after the procedure.The group (BNCFL and PENG block) is expected to present analgesic quality superior to or equivalent to that of the SFIB and MORFIT groups (the latter considered the standard), but with a lower incidence of impairment of motor function and other adverse effects. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Measure pain at rest, assess quadriceps motor function using dynamometry and strength index, compare the total dose of opioids consumed in 24 hours and the incidence of their side effects. ;The time of the first request for these will also be recorded, as well as the incidence of complications from the blocks, postoperative delirium and length of hospital stay. | — |
