Pericapsular Nerve Group Block for Positional Pain and Postoperative Analgesia in Hip Fractures

About This Study

The aims of this study are: * Evaluate the effectiveness of the pericapsulare blockade of the femoral nerve, the accessory obturator nerve and the obturator nerve in patients with pertrochanteric fractures of the femur, during the pre-operative period for patient positioning manoeuvres (sitting position for performing spinal anaesthesia, mobilisation on the operating bed, etc.); * Evaluate the consumption of opioids or hypnotics in the perioperative period, which are more responsible for the incidence of delirium in the elderly patient; * Evaluate the duration and quality of postoperative analgesia and well-being.
