Brief summary (from the registry)
Pain is a major problem that has to be dealt with in case of hip fracture, as it presents an obstacle for examination, positioning for receiving neuroaxial anesthesia and postoperative mobility and physiotherapy. With the introduction of ultrasound in regional anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks, regional analgesia float to the surface as a substitute for opioids with less side effects Lumbar erector spinae plane block has emerged as a reliable analgesic option for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). In 2018, a new block was described, termed pericapsular nerve group block or PENG block, that selectively targets the articular branches of the femoral and obturator nerves while sparing their motor components
