Efficacy of pericapsular nerve group block vs. fascia iliaca compartment block for Hip surgeries: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The review aimed to compare outcomes of pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) vs. fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) for patients undergoing hip surgeries.

Methods

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in the databases of PubMed, CENTRAL, Embase, and Web of Science comparing PENG vs. FICB for pain control after hip surgeries were included in the review.

Results

Six RCTs were included. 133 patients received PENG block and were compared with 125 patients receiving FICB. Our analysis showed no difference in 6 h (MD: -0.19 95% CI: -1.18, 0.79 I ²= 97% p = 0.70), 12 h (MD: 0.04 95% CI: -0.44, 0.52 I ²= 72% p = 0.88) and 24 h (MD: 0.09 95% CI: -1.03, 1.21 I ²= 97% p = 0.87) pain scores between PENG and FICB groups. Pooled analysis showed that mean opioid consumption in morphine equivalents was significantly less with PENG as compared to FICB (MD: -8.63 95% CI: -14.45, -2.82 I ²= 84% p = 0.004). Meta-analysis of three RCTs showed no variation in the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the two groups. The quality of evidence on GRADE was mostly moderate.

Conclusion

Moderate quality of evidence suggests that PENG may result in better analgesia than FICB in patients undergoing hip surgeries. Data on motor-sparing ability and complications are scarce to draw conclusions. Further large-scale and high-quality RCTs should be conducted to supplement current findings.

Project description:BackgroundPain after total hip arthroplasty (THA) for femoral neck fracture (FNF) can be severe, potentially leading to serious complications. PENG block has become an optional local analgesic strategy in hip fracture surgery, but it cannot provide effective pain relief for the posterior capsule of the hip joint. Therefore, we modified the traditional sacral plexus nerve block and named it Posterior Hip Pericapsule Block (PHPB) to complement the blockade of the relevant nerves innervating the posterior hip capsule region. Thereby, we detail the analgesic effect of PHPB combined with PENG block on five hip fracture patients and the effect on their hip motor function.MethodsThis case series was conducted from December 2023 to February 2024. We performed ultrasound-guided PHPB combined with PENG block on five patients with hip fractures. Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain scores at rest and maximum NRS pain scores during limb movement of the five patients were recorded within 48 h after surgery. Their hip flexion, abduction, adduction, keen flexion and quadriceps muscle strength were also recorded. Serious postoperative complications, including wound infection, hematoma formation, or nerve injury, were recorded.ResultsThey experienced effective pain control within 48 h postoperatively, with NRS pain scores at rest decreasing from 3.0 (3.0, 4.5) to 0.0 (0.0, 1.0) and maximum NRS pain scores during limb movement from 8.0 (7.5, 8.5) to 1.0 (0.5, 2.0). They can autonomously perform hip flexion, abduction, adduction, and knee flexion within 48 h postoperatively without any signs of movement disorders or quadriceps muscle weakness. No severe postoperative complications, such as wound infections, hematoma formation or nerve damage, were observed in any of the patients.ConclusionsUltrasound-guided PENG block combined with PHPB provided effective analgesia for hip fracture patients in the perioperative period. It maintained hip joint motor function and quadriceps muscle strength within 24 h after THA.

Project description:ObjectiveAn assessment of the feasibility of fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) combined with nonopioid analgesics and patient controlled analgesia (PCA), oxycodone, in the perioperative anaesthetic management for elective total hip replacement (THR).DesignA randomised, single-center, open-label study.SettingA single hospital. The study was conducted from October 2018 to May 2019.ParticipantsIn total, 109 patients were scheduled for elective total hip replacement.InterventionsPostoperative FICB with 0.375% ropivacaine in conjunction with nonopioid analgesics (paracetamol, metamizole, and pregabalin) and oxycodone as rescue analgesia.MeasurementsPain intensity was measured using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS) at rest and during rehabilitation, the total dose of postoperative oxycodone required, the occurrence of opioid-related adverse events, patient hospitalisation time, and level of satisfaction. Follow-up period: 48 h.Main resultsA total of 109 patients were randomised into two groups and, of these, 9 were subsequently excluded from the analysis (three conversions to general anaesthesia, two failures to perform FICB, four failures to use the PCA pump). Patients in the FICB group received standard intravenous analgesia with FICB, and those in the control group were managed with standard intravenous analgesia only. Pain level measured with NRS was significantly lower at rest and during rehabilitation in the FICB group. Oxycodone use in the first 48 h was significantly higher in the control group (p < 0.001); additionally, the time to the first dose of rescue analgesia was significantly shorter (p < 0.001). In the control group, there was a higher rate of side effects and a significantly longer hospitalisation time (p < 0.001). Similarly, higher satisfaction with the applied analgesic treatment was noted in the FICB group.ConclusionsFICB in elective THR treatments is an effective form of analgesia, which reduces the need for opioids, the number of complications, the length of hospitalisation, and which ensures a high level of patient satisfaction with the analgesic treatment used.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov No. NCT04690647.
