Suprainguinal Facia Iliaca Block in Maximizing the Feasibility of Positioning for Spinal Anesthesia
Sponsor: Suez Canal University
Summary
In this study, we assessed the effect of suprainguinal facia iliaca block in maximizing the feasibility of positioning for spinal anaesthesia in patients with hip and proximal femur fractures by determining the angle that could be achieved and success rate of spinal anesthesia The control group received a sham block with the same technique of suprainguinal fascia iliaca block before being given spinal anaesthesia. The interventional group received suprainguinal fascia iliaca block before being given spinal anaesthesia.
