Summary

Controlling pain after hip replacement surgery improves comfort and partient satisfaction. Pain after hip replacement has traditionally been managed using systemic pain medications including acetaminophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. A recent Cochrane review demonstrated that compared to systemic analgesia alone, peripheral nerve blocks reduce postoperative pain with moderate-quality evidence. Pericapsular Nerve Group block is a new technique allowing local anesthetic diffusion to femoral, obturator and accessory obturator nerves and providing a good analgesic effect for hip fracture surgery. Investigators hypothesized that the PENG block could be an interesting alternative to systemic analgesiscs for pain control after total hip replacement.

Conditions

  • Hip Arthropathy
  • Postoperative Pain

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pericapsular nerve group block with saline solution

A curvilinear low-frequency ultrasound probe (2-5MHz) was initially placed in a transverse plane over the AIIS and then aligned with the pubic ramus by rotating the probe counterclockwise approximately 45 degrees. In this view, the IPE, the iliopsoas muscle and tendon, the femoral artery, and pectineus muscle were observed. A 22-gauge, 100-mm needle was inserted from lateral to medial in an in-plane approach to place the tip in the musculofascial plane between the psoas tendon anteriorly and the pubic ramus posteriorly. Following negative aspiration, the saline solution was injected in 5-mL increments while observing for adequate fluid spread in this plane.a total volune of 40 ml saline solution was injected.

PROCEDURE

Pericapsular nerve group block with ropivacaine

A curvilinear low-frequency ultrasound probe (2-5MHz) was initially placed in a transverse plane over the AIIS and then aligned with the pubic ramus by rotating the probe counterclockwise approximately 45 degrees. In this view, the IPE, the iliopsoas muscle and tendon, the femoral artery, and pectineus muscle were observed. A 22-gauge, 100-mm needle was inserted from lateral to medial in an in-plane approach to place the tip in the musculofascial plane between the psoas tendon anteriorly and the pubic ramus posteriorly. Following negative aspiration, local anesthetic was injected in 5-mL increments while observing for adequate fluid spread in this plane. a 2 mg.kg-1Ropivacaine in 40 ml of saline was injected
