Summary
This study tests whether a special ultrasound-guided nerve block, called the Quadro-Iliac Plane (QIP) block, can reduce pain and the need for morphine after hip replacement surgery. One hundred adults scheduled for hip replacement will be randomly assigned to receive either the QIP block with a numbing medicine or a sham block with salt water. The main goal is to see how much morphine they need in the first 24 hours after surgery.
