New injection may cut opioid use after broken hip surgery
NCT ID NCT07009782
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a Quadroiliac Plane (QIP) block, a numbing injection near the hip, can reduce pain and opioid use after femur fracture surgery. Thirty adults were randomly assigned to receive either the QIP block or standard care. Researchers measured pain scores and fentanyl use over 24 hours. The goal is to find a safer, more effective way to manage post-surgery pain.

Active substance
bupivacaine
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a better way to control pain after femur fracture surgery, reducing the need for strong opioids.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 30 participants. The results may not apply to everyone, and the block carries risks like any injection near nerves.
