Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block versus Supra-Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block for Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

ABSTRACT: This study compared the effects of the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block and supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) on postoperative analgesia and quadriceps strength following total hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia. A total of 58 patients were randomized to receive either PENG block (PENG group) or supra-inguinal FICB (FICB group) following anesthetic induction. The primary outcomes were the postoperative pain scores. Patients were randomized to receive either PENG block or supra-inguinal FICB following anesthetic induction. Pain scores at rest and with movement were assessed preoperatively, at the postanesthesia care unit (only at rest), and at 6, 24, 36, and 48 h postoperatively. Opioid consumption was also assessed for 48 h postoperatively. Quadriceps streng
