Comparison of the Efficiency of Femur Nerve Block and Intravenous Analgesia Treatment in Hip Fracture Patients

Patients receive intravenous fentanyl at a dose of 1 mcg/kg, diluted in 100 mL normal saline, administered as a single dose for systemic analgesia. This intervention aims to control acute pain in hip fracture patients before surgical intervention.

Patients undergo an ultrasound-guided, single-injection femoral nerve block with 20 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine. This regional anesthesia technique targets the femoral nerve, providing effective pain relief while reducing opioid requirements.
