Comparing two nerve blocks for femur fracture surgery pain
Part of Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if one type of nerve block (PENG block) works better than another (S-FICB) for controlling pain during and after femur fracture surgery. Both blocks are guided by ultrasound to help with your recovery.
