Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Pericapsular nerve group block with injectate dexamethasone.  the PENG block will be performed with patient in supine position.A curvilinear low frequency ultrasound probe (2-5MHZ) will be initially placed in transverse plane over the anterior inferior iliac spine and then align with pubic ramus by rotating the probe counterclockwise approximately 45 degree. In this view the iliopubic eminence, iliopsoas muscle and tendon,femoral artery and pectineus muscle visualized.A 23 gauge quinke needle is inserted and the tip is placed in the musculofascial plane between the psoas tendon anteriorly and pubic ramus posteriorly. Injectate containing 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine with dexamethasone 8mg will be injected at the target site and spread in plane is observed.  
Comparator Agent  Pericapsular nerve group block with intravenous dexamethasone.  In PENG+IVD group ,the PENG block will be performed with patient in supine position.A curvilinear low frequency ultrasound probe (2-5MHZ) will be initially placed in transverse plane over the anterior inferior iliac spine and then align with pubic ramus by rotating the probe counterclockwise approximately 45 degree. In this view the iliopubic eminence, iliopsoas muscle and tendon,femoral artery and pectineus muscle visualized.A 23 gauge quinke needle is inserted and the tip is placed in the musculofascial plane between the psoas tendon anteriorly and pubic ramus posteriorly. Injectate containing 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine only will be injected ,simultaneous followed by intravenous injection of dexamethasone 8 mg.

Response - NO
Brief Summary  

The approval of the Institutional Research &Ethics Committee  will be  obtained  and the patients will  be  randomly allocated (computer-generated random numbers) to 2groups   Group I (PENG +PND) and   Group 2 (PENG +IVD) .

 

Written  informed consent will be obtained from all patient participating in study.Inclusion criteria includes all American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I and II , age greater than 18 years, weight greater than 50 kg,  scheduled for hip fracture surgeries (Intertrochanteric fracture ,Subcapital fracture,Hip hemiarthroplasty ,Total hip arthroplasty )will be  involved in the study. Postoperatively patients will be shifted to PACU ,where the Numeric rating score (NRS) will be recorded at 30 minutes at first , followed by 1st  , 4th  , 6th , 8th , 12th ,18th and 24 hr.If the Patient complains of pain  and if the   NRS >6 at any hour rescue analgesic of 1 gm  of intravenous paracetamol will be given.Injection fentanyl 1 mcg/kg iv will be given to patients who do not respond to in paracetamol 1 gm iv .Salvage analgesic needs and times will be noted in detail, and the use of rescue analgesics, as well as NRS scores at designated hours, will be kept in a statistical evaluation.
