Comparison of Sacral Erector Spinae Plane Block and Supra-Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block for Analgesia After Hip Fracture Surgery

Turkey (Türkiye)77 participantsStarted 2025-01-15

Plain-language summary

This study compares the postoperative analgesic effectiveness of Sacral Erector Spinae Plane Block (SESPB) and Supra-Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block (SIFIB) in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. Both techniques are regional anesthesia methods aiming to reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption. The study evaluates pain scores, opioid requirements, mobilization times, and hospital discharge times to determine which block provides more effective pain management in different postoperative periods.
