Comparison of the Effect of Intra Articular Steroid Injection and Pericapsular Nerve Group Block for Hip Osteoarthritis

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hip Osteoarthritis
Interventions
Procedure: peng block
Procedure: intraarticular injection
Registration Number
NCT05136248
Lead Sponsor
Diskapi Teaching and Research Hospital
Brief Summary

The most common cause of hip joint dysfunction in the elderly is degenerative osteoarthritis of the hip. Innervation of the hip joint capsule is provided by the obturator nerve, the accessory obturator nerve, and the femoral nerve. With pericapsular nerve group block (PENG), by blocking the femoral nerve and the accessory obturator nerve, analgesia is successfully provided for the hip joint. Intra-articular injection of corticosteroids; It is used as an alternative to surgical interventions because it reduces inflammation and short-term pain and is a minimally invasive method. The investigators aim to compare and report patients who underwent ultrasound-guided intra-articular steroid injection and PENG block in terms of post-procedural pain scores and patient satisfaction.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
numerical rating scale (NRS) pain scorechange from baseline to day 1, week 2, 4, 8 after the block

The 11-point NRS consists of numbers between 0 and 10 where 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "maximum pain." The patient is instructed to identify one number between 0 and 10, which is best representative of their pain intensity.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of Life (WOMAC)baseline to 8 weeks

The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) is a self-administered health status measure and consists of 24 items divided into three domains, which are pain, stiffness, and physical function, validated to patients with hip or knee osteoarthritis
