About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Femoral Fracture focused on measuring fascia iliaca compartment block, fentanyl

Eligibility Criteria

60 Years - 85 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) score I and II
  • Elective surgery of repair of unilateral, single femoral fracture under spinal anaesthesia performed in General Operation Theatre, Hospital Kuala Lumpur. The fracture may involve femoral neck or femoral shaft.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient with contraindication for spinal anaesthesia
  • Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to medication used in this study
  • Morbid obesity (body mass index (BMI) > 35 kg/m2)
  • Infection at the intended site of administration of fascia iliaca compartment block
  • Patient with impaired cognitive function

Sites / Locations

  • Kuala Lumpur General Hospital

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Active Comparator

Arm Label

fascia iliaca compartment block

intravenous fentanyl

Arm Description

Patient will receive 40ml of ropivacaine 0.375% at the fascia iliaca compartment under the guidance of ultrasound. It will be given 20 minutes before patient is positioned for spinal anaesthesia

Patient will receive 0.5 mcg/kg of intravenous fentanyl. It will be given 5 minutes before patient is positioned for spinal anaesthesia

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Pain score during positioning
Pain score is assessed using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score

Secondary Outcome Measures

Ease of positioning for spinal anaesthesia
It will be characterized as 'very difficult', 'difficult', 'easy' and 'very easy'
Patient satisfaction
Patient will be asked whether they will choose the same analgesic technique in the event of future operation : 'yes' or 'no'.
