Comparing two medicines for hip fracture surgery pain relief
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two medicines (magnesium sulfate and dexmedetomidine) that are added to spinal anesthesia during hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief and comfort during and after the procedure.
