PENG block experiences in high-risk hip fracture geriatric patients: Case Series.

Abstract

We aimed to share our experiences with pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block for perioperative analgesia in proximal femoral nailing for four frail elderly patients. PENG block is a novel technique for postoperative analgesia in hip surgery. Ultrasound-guided PENG block in hip fractures can relieve pain, contribute to intraoperative low-dose spinal anesthesia, and maintain postoperative analgesia.
