Summary

Optimal pain control with limited muscle weakness is paramount for a swift initiation of physical therapy and ambulation. Fascia iliaca compartment block (FIC) has been recommended since it offers the best pain control with low risk of motor block. Pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) with lateral femoral cutaneous block (LFCN) has been proposed as an effective alternative to FIB that offers similar pain control with a considerably lower risk of motor block. The aim of this study is to compare the afore mentioned blocks and determine which one yielded the least degree of quadriceps femoris muscle weakness and the better pain control (the lowest NRS score with least need for opioids).

Interventions

PROCEDURE

PENG plus LFCN block

The experimental arm will be subjected to a combination of peripheral blocks: the interfascial block of the PENG and the perinervous block of the LFCN The PENG block involves deposition of local anesthetic in the fascial plane between the psoas muscle and the superior pubic ramus. The LFCN block consists of applying local anesthetic near the nerve. The LFCN lies in the subcutaneous plane deep to the fascia lata below the anterior superior ischiatic spine.

PROCEDURE

FIC Block

The control arm will be subjected to an interfascial block, the fascia iliaca Compartment Block. The FICB consists in the injection of anaesthetic agents into the fascia iliaca compartment.
