NA · Aydin Adnan Menderes University · NCT05997940
This study is testing if a new pain relief method called the PENG block can help older patients feel less pain after hip surgery and recover better than with usual pain medications.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of the Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block as a method for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing hip surgery. The study focuses on elderly patients, who often experience significant pain and complications from traditional analgesic methods like opioids and NSAIDs. By utilizing regional anesthesia techniques, the trial aims to reduce postoperative complications and enhance recovery times. The PENG block is administered to patients who have undergone spinal anesthesia, with the goal of improving pain management while minimizing side effects.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults over 18 years old with an ASA score of I-III who are undergoing hip surgery and have provided informed consent.
Not a fit: Patients with ASA scores of IV and above, those unable to communicate, or those with significant comorbidities may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly improve pain management and recovery outcomes for elderly patients undergoing hip surgery.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with regional anesthesia techniques, suggesting that this approach may be effective for postoperative pain management.
