Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

active comparator: pericapsular nerve group block and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block

Nerve blocks

active comparator: fascia iliaca compartment block

Nerve block

Interventions

Pericapsular Nerve Group Block with Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Block

Local anesthetic will be deposited along the lower pelvis to block 3 nerves that innervate the anterior hip capsule

Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block

Local anesthetic is deposited between the fascia iliaca and the internal oblique muscle in an attempt to block 3 nerves that innervate the hip.

Primary outcome measure

  • Verbal Numeric Pain Score Comparison of Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block and Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve (LFCN) Block to Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB) in Patients Undergoing Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
