Analgesic Benefits of Motor-sparing Fascial Plane Blocks in Comparison to Periarticular Local Infiltration Analgesia for Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Network Meta-analysis
Periarticular local infiltration analgesia alone provides the most consistent improvements in postoperative rest pain, analgesic consumption, and functional recovery after THA. The addition of a quadratus lumborum block or pericapsular nerve group block to periarticular local infiltration may further improve analgesic outcomes.
