This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for managing pain while positioning hip fracture patients before they receive spinal anesthesia. The goal is to find a more comfortable way to prepare for surgery.
This trial tests if a special nerve block (PENG block) can reduce pain before hip fracture surgery. It may help patients have less pain and need fewer painkillers.
This trial tests three ways of doing a PENG block (a type of pain relief injection for hip surgery) with or without added medications (adjuvants) to see which works best for older adults. It aims to improve pain control and reduce the need for other pain medicines after surgery.
