Why the study?
Does ultrasound-guided continuous 3-in-1 block improve pain management and cardiovascular stability compared to epidural anesthesia or systemic pain therapy in very elderly patients with hip fracture?
Does ultrasound-guided continuous 3-in-1 block improve pain management and cardiovascular stability compared to epidural anesthesia or systemic pain therapy in very elderly patients with hip fracture?
Ultrasound-guided continuous 3-in-1 block provides effective, stress-free preoperative pain relief and prevents troponin T elevation compared to systemic analgesia in very elderly patients with hip fractures.
