Study of H-FICB ＆ PENG Block in Elderly Patients' THA on the Post-operative Quality of Recovery

February 2, 2023 updated by: Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University

Comparative Prospective Randomized Study of Modified Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block Versus Pericapsular Nerve Group Block in Elderly Patients' Total Hip Arthroplasty on the Post-operative Quality of Recovery

Total joint replacement is projected to become the most common elective surgical procedure in the coming decade; the prevalence of total hip arthroplasty (THA) was estimated as more than 2.5 million individuals in the entire United States population. Orthopedic procedures involving the hip have remained challenging for regional anesthesia given the complex innervation, painful nature contributing to difficulty positioning, and a desire to maintain mobility to hasten postoperative recovery.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

EXPERIMENTAL: Group F: H-FICB under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia
Group F was subjected to a high fascia iliaca compartment block under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia.
Procedure: ultrasound-guided high fascia iliaca compartment block
H-FICB was guided by ultrasound before general anesthesia. The patient was supine. First, the probe is placed transversely above the groin. Then slide the probe up and down to reveal a clear image of the internal oblique and sartorius muscles. There is a bowtie-like iliac fascia space at the junction of these two muscles. After the scanning, the needle was inserted behind the probe with the tip pointed to the ventral side under the guidance of real-time ultrasound; the tip passed through the skin into the iliac fascia space and advanced to the inguinal ligament. After no blood was extracted, 1 ~ 2 ml of normal saline was firstly injected to determine whether the tip position was correct. If the needle tip was correctly positioned, 0.375% ropivacaine 30 mL of local anesthetic was injected. The H-FICB was performed under ultrasound guidance by the same anesthesiologist.
EXPERIMENTAL: Group P: PENG block under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia
Group P was subjected to a pericapsular nerve group (PENG) Block under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia.
Procedure: ultrasound-guided pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block
A low-frequency curvilinear transducer was placed in the transverse plane over the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and moved over inferiorly to visualize the pubic ramus. The femoral artery and ilio pubic eminence (IPE) were then visualized (Figure 1). Using in-plane technique 10 cm echogenic 21 gauge needle was advanced from lateral to medial direction, and 20 ml of local anesthetic 0.5% ropivacaine was deposited between the psoas tendon anteriorly and pubic ramus posteriorly.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline visual analogue scale
Time Frame: one day before the operation.
Using a ruler, the score is determined by measuring the distance (mm) on the 10-cm line between the "no pain" anchor and the patient's mark, providing a range of scores from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates greater pain intensity. Based on the distribution of pain Visual Analogue Scale scores in post-surgical patients (knee replacement, hysterectomy, or laparoscopic myomectomy) who described their postoperative pain intensity as none, mild, moderate, or severe, the following cut points on the pain Visual Analogue Scale have been recommended: no pain (0-4 mm), mild pain(5-44 mm), moderate pain (45-74 mm), and severe pain (75-100 mm).
one day before the operation.
Harris Hip Score
Time Frame: At one week, one month, and three months post-operatively.
The HHS is divided into three sections. The first section are questions about pain and its impact which are answered by the patient or client. The second and third sections require the physiotherapist to assess the patient or client's hip joint and function.The HHS is a measure of dysfunction so the higher the score, the better the outcome for the individual. Results can be recorded and calculated online. The maximum score possible is 100. Results can be interpreted with the following[1]: <70 = poor result; 70-80 = fair, 80-90 = good, and 90-100 = excellent.
At one week, one month, and three months post-operatively.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The mini-mental State Examination
Time Frame: one day before the operation.
The mini-mental State Examination is effective as a screening tool for cognitive impairment in older, community-dwelling, hospitalized, and institutionalized adults. Assessment of an older adult's cognitive function is best achieved when it is done routinely, systematically, and thoroughly. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) or Folstein test is a 30-point questionnaire that is used extensively in clinical and research settings to measure cognitive impairment. Any score of 24 or more (out of 30) indicates normal cognition. Below this, scores can indicate severe (≤9 points), moderate (10-18 points), or mild (19-23 points) cognitive impairment. The raw score may also need to be corrected for educational attainment and age.
