Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Femoral Nerve block  F group will receive an Ultrasound-guided femoral Nerve block according to the standard procedure with a 5cm 20 G Teflon coated, short bevel Stimuplex needle with the patient in the supine position. The block will be performed with a 20ml solution of 1% Lignocaine with adrenaline.  
Intervention  Supra Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block  S group will receive an Ultrasound-guided Supra Inguinal Facia Iliac Block according to the standard procedure with a 5cm, 20 G Teflon coated, short bevel Stimuplex needle with the patient in the supine position. The block will be performed with a 30ml solution of 1% Lignocaine with adrenaline.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To observe the effectiveness of Supra Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block and Femoral Nerve Block under Ultrasound guidance as analgesia before Central neuraxial block in the sitting position for Fracture Neck of Femur Surgery. The following objectives are set.
To compare the time required for the onset of sensory block after both techniques.  
The patient will be assessed for pain with Visual Analogue Scale at 0, 2, 5, 10, 15, 20min, and after giving a sitting position and the time will be noted with Zero being the time of giving block. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1.To identify the dermatomal coverage of the block (femoral, obturator, and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve) after both techniques
2.To assess the adequacy of patient positioning for administering central neuraxial block after both techniques. 
The patient will be assessed for pain with Visual Analogue Scale at 0, 2, 5, 10, 15, 20min, and after giving a sitting position and the time will be noted with Zero being the time of giving block.

Brief Summary   A Prospective Randomized Clinical trial, double blinded, to observe the effectiveness of Supra Inguinal Fascia Block and Femoral Nerve Block under Ultrasound guidance as analgesia before Central Neuraxial block in the sitting position for 60 patients for Fracture Neck of Femur Surgery in a tertiary centre for a duration of 1 year.
