Summary

This study compares three versions of a nerve block (PENG block) for people aged 65 and older having hip surgery. All participants receive the same base painkiller, but some get extra medications (dexamethasone and/or dexmedetomidine) either through an IV or near the nerves. The goal is to see which combination provides the longest pain relief and reduces the need for strong opioids, helping seniors recover faster and more comfortably.
