U.S., Dec. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07263932) titled 'PENG vs PHPB for Hip Arthroplasty Analgesia' on Nov. 24.
Brief Summary: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a commonly performed surgical procedure, and its incidence continues to rise with the aging population. Effective postoperative analgesia facilitates early mobilization and accelerates recovery. The pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block provides analgesia to the anterior hip capsule by targeting the articular branches of the femoral, obturator, and accessory obturator nerves.
