abstract

background: postoperative pain is one of the major problems in patients with femoral or hip fracture. current study investigates the effect of 0.2% and 0.3% bupivacaine in ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block (ficb) on postoperative pain.   methods: this randomized clinical trial study was conducted in rasoul akram hospital of iran university of medical sciences. forty-eight patients with femoral or hip fractures who were candidates for surgery underwent ficb, divided into two groups receiving bupivacaine in 0.2% and 0.3% concentrations. pain was evaluated with visual analog scale (vas) at times 2, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours after surgery. need for opioids, nausea and vomiting after surgery, patients' satisfaction with pain control and motor block were also recorded. t-test or mann-whitney u test and repeated measure anova was used for analysis.   results: pain score after surgery was significantly lower in groups receiving 0.3% than the group receiving 0.2% concentration. patients' satisfaction with pain control in 0.2% group was significantly higher (p=0.04). time to analgesic onset in both groups had no significant differences (p=0.5). the incidence of nausea and vomiting (p=0.5) and opioid consumption (p=0.1) between the two groups showed no significant difference.   conclusion: in femoral or hip fracture, bupivacaine with 0.3% concentration in fascia iliaca compartment block can cause lower pain score compared to bupivacaine with 0.2% concentration, but patients' satisfaction with pain control and severity of motor block is higher in bupivacaine 0.2%.

Ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block for hip fractures in the emergency department.

BACKGROUND Hip fracture (HFx) is a painful injury that is commonly seen in the emergency department (ED). Patients who experience pain from HFx are often treated with intravenous opiates, which may cause deleterious side effects, particularly in elderly patients. An alternative to systemic opioid analgesia involves peripheral nerve blockade. This approach may be ideally suited for the ED enviro...

Efficacy of ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block after hip hemiarthroplasty

BACKGROUND The fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) provides an analgesic effect in patients with femur fractures. However, the postoperative pain after hip surgery is different from that after femur fracture, because of the difference in the degree and location of tissue trauma. Whether FICB provides effective postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty is not well ...

Standard preoperative analgesia with or without fascia iliaca compartment block for femoral neck fractures.

PURPOSE To compare the visual analogue score (VAS) for pain in patients with femoral neck fracture who received standard preoperative analgesia with or without fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB). METHODS In patients with femoral neck fracture, 69 patients who received standard preoperative analgesia (regular paracetamol 1g 4 times a day, codeine 60 mg 4 times a day, and opioid 10 mg 2 hou...
