Pain management and functional recovery after Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block for Total Hip Arthroplasty. A pro-spective, randomized, double-blinded clinical trial.

Abstract

The pericapsular nerve group, or PENG block, has been recently described and shows promise in providing analgesia to the hip joint. However, the effect of this block on postoperative rehabilitation is uncertain. This study compares a preoperative PENG block to a placebo before total hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia. 

Aim

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of pericapsular nerve block on functional recovery and pain management after Total Hip Arthroplasty

Intended Impact of the Study

Improved pain control after total hip arthroplasty
