Psoas Compartment Block Versus Periarticular Local Anesthetic Infiltration for Pain Management for Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Prospective, Randomized Study
The primary objective of this study is to examine whether there is a difference in the level
of resting pain following total hip arthroplasty with an anterior approach with use of a
psoas compartment block versus a local periarticular anesthetic infiltration
of resting pain following total hip arthroplasty with an anterior approach with use of a
psoas compartment block versus a local periarticular anesthetic infiltration
A single-center, prospective, randomized clinical trial with a total of 100 patients. One
orthopaedic adult reconstruction surgeon at Beaumont Hospital Royal Oak (JJV) will perform
all surgeries. After the patient has consented they will be randomized to one of the
following two groups:
1. Psoas compartment block (n=50)
2. Periarticular local anesthetic infiltration (n=50),
The patient will be blinded to the study group.
