Summary

This study tests two types of nerve blocks—anterior iliopsoas space block and PENG block—to see which helps patients with hip fractures get into position for spinal anesthesia more easily and with less pain. About 90 adults undergoing hip surgery will receive one of the blocks before anesthesia. The goal is to improve comfort and reduce the need for extra pain medication.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Bupivacaine
What this could lead to: If successful, this could show a better way to reduce pain and make spinal anesthesia positioning easier for hip surgery patients.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-phase trial with only 90 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The blocks may not work better than standard care.
