Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to compare Pericapsular nerve block and the femoral nerve block for relieving positional pain during regional anaesthesia in hip fracture. Secondary objective is to provide post-operative pain relief in hip surgery. After taking written consent from 75 patients Scheduled for hip surgery under regional anaesthesia were selected. standard Hospital protocols like medical optimisation, intravenous line placement , pre-medication and antibiotic prophylaxis was followed. Then the patient were randomised into two groups and blinding was done. In the operation room monitors for non-invasive BP ,electro cardiogram and pulse oximeter were attached. Pain during rest and pain on 15 degree passive limb elevation was assessed by numeric rating score. In group a patient we will give pericapsular nerve block and in group we will give femoral nerve block using ultrasound guided needle . Drugs used in both the group are same that is 0.25% Bupivacaine 20 ML. after the operation patient will be shifted to post op recovery room. In post-operative period, pulse rate, NIBP, and saturation will be recorded at regular intervals and post-operative pain. Relief will be assessed by numeric rating scoring immediately after surgery then at(2,4,6,8,10,12 hrs), and then the demand for first dose of analgesia was recorded and complication if any.
