Summary

The development of minimal-incision techniques for total hip arthroplasty (THA) with preservation of soft tissue is generally associated with reduction of postoperative pain and increased patient comfort. Although this technique requires a smaller incision than other approaches used for hip surgery, adequate postoperative pain management remains crucial for enhanced recovery and early rehabilitation. The fascia iliaca block (FIB) is commonly used to enhance analgesia after hip replacement surgery, however the effect of FIB volume on analgesia quality and sensory-motor blockade have not been adequately studied. In this study, total postsurgical opioid consumption (morphine equivalents IV in hospital and oral at home) through the first postoperative week will be compared and extent and duration of sensory motor block through the 2-day inpatient stay will be evaluated.
