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) p
