Study summary

Regional anesthesia for postoperative analgesia in THA includes epidural anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks. However epidural anesthesia has a great role in THA, it has become restricted as perioperative antithrombotic drugs are generally used for orthopedic patients.

the study aim to evaluate and compare efficacy and safety of pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) block and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve versus Lumbar plexus block on postoperative analgesia in hip surgery.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Jan 2023 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jan 2024, 12 months after the start.

Of 1,888 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Pain, Postoperative, half reached primary completion within 11 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 23. This study's planned 12 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 1,901 studies reached it within 11 months; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 23.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 19, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
