Study Objective: After surgery, patients reported the delay in receiving help as the primary factor for poorly controlled pain. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of patient management through two communication modalities: remote transmission (RT) versus bedside control (BC). We hypothesized that using remote technology for pump programming may provide the best postoperative infusion regimen for the patient's self-assessment of pain and adverse events.

Background: A Hip fracture in the intermediate-risk elderly patient is common and associated with a high rate of postoperative morbidity and mortality. There is a lack of consensus on the optimal anaesthetic technique but there is a clear association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative morbidity and mortality. We aimed to compare the haemodynamic stability of three anaesthesia techniques: general anaesthesia (GA), continuous spinal anaesthesia (CSA), and multiple nerve blocks (MNB).

Posterior Lumbar plexus block (PLPB) combined with an ipsilateral sacral plexus block is a valuable anaesthetic technique in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. PLPB is performed through the acoustic window of the lumbar ultrasound trident and the position of the needle tip, before injection of LA, was confirmed by observing quadriceps femoris muscle contraction to peripheral nerve stimulation (i.e.

Background: Pain management is important for ensuring early mobilization after hip arthroplasty; however, the optimal components remain controversial. Recently, the quadratus lumborum block has been proposed as an analgesic option. The current study tested the hypothesis that the posterior quadratus lumborum block combined with multimodal analgesia decreases morphine consumption after hip arthroplasty.
