Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify the association between analgesic management with blockade of the iliac fascia versus intravenous analgesia with the presence of delirium during hospital stay in patients admitted to the orthogeriatric clinical care center, to determine the opioid consumption of both groups of patients during hospitalization and determine the risk factors that may be associated with a greater presentation of delirium.

Conditions

  • Delirium in Old Age
  • Fragility Fracture
  • Hip Fractures

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Anesthetic nerve block

iliac fascia block is an analgesic technique that uses local anesthesia, is effective and relatively safe in preoperative management. The target of this block is the femoral and lateral femoral cutaneous nerves; which innervate the anterior aspect of the thigh, as well as the muscle and periosteum that covers the femoral head, neck and proximal femur.
