Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative erector spinae blocks in arthroscopic hip surgery. This will be a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Description:

The aim of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative erector spinae blocks in arthroscopic hip surgery. This will be a prospective randomized controlled trial. The control group will not receive a preoperative block prior to surgery, but will receive local anesthetic at the surgical site at the conclusion of the surgery. The study group will receive a preoperative block and local anesthetic. The primary outcomes will be pain levels and opioid consumption in the post-operative care unit. The secondary outcomes will be pain levels and opioid consumption post-operatively, and functional outcome measures.
