Study Overview

Brief Summary

THR (Total Hip Replacement) can be very painful and regional anesthesia is very effective in reducing postoperative pain. Fascia Iliaca Block (FIB) and Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) are indirect approaches to the lumbar plexus that resulted to be very promising for THR. However, no studies investigated the analgesic superiority of either FIB or ESPB. In our study the investigators compare FIB and ESPB in terms of pain relief expressed as morphine consumption in the first 24 hours after primary THR.
