Brief Summary  
•The Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB) has been used for perioperative analgesia in patients undergoing hip surgeries(1).
•The FICB has a higher rate of block of the femoral and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve than perivascular femoral nerve block (2).
• In the literature there are two techniques of Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB) administration has been described, a conventional infrainguinal approach by Dalens (1) and a modified suprainguinal approach by Stevens (3).
•
•But, despite its higher spread, there has been no clinical randomized trial published in the literature, showing the superiority among modified suprainguinal approach of FICB to infrainguinal for postoperative pain relief in  hip surgeries(4,5).
•We therefore undertake this prospective randomized trial to evaluate which technique among FICB confers more postoperative analgesic benefit in patients undergoing  hip surgeries.
