Summary

This study tested two different pain-relief mixtures given as a nerve block before hip surgery. One group received nalbuphine with bupivacaine, the other dexamethasone with bupivacaine. The goal was to see which combination provided longer pain relief and reduced the need for extra painkillers. 102 adults having hip surgery took part.
