An interventional study of ultrasound guided facia iliaca block and Intravenous drug in Pain and Analgesia, sponsored by Minia University. Recruiting at 1 site in Egypt. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-10-19.
Sponsored by Minia University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Prevention
Proximal femur fractures are one of the commonest fractures especially in the elderly population. Early surgical fixation is the best analgesic for associated pain. Spinal anesthesia has been favored by many anesthesiologists due to the simplicity of the technique, the better analgesic profile, and the lower incidence of complications like delirium and thromboembolic events. However, severe pain, encountered during positioning for spinal anesthesia, can complicate the technique and worsen the patient experience.
the study aim to compare the analgesic effect of intravenous dexmedetomidine and fascia iliaca block preoperatively to assist positioning patients for performance of spinal anesthesia.
