About this study
Official title: Effect of Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block Added to Spinal Anesthesia on Postoperative Delirium in Older Adults Undergoing Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Prospective, Randomized, Assessor-Blinded Controlled Trial
Postoperative delirium is a common and serious complication in older adults undergoing total hip arthroplasty, associated with prolonged hospitalization, increased morbidity, delayed rehabilitation, and long-term cognitive decline. Modifiable perioperative risk factors include uncontrolled postoperative pain, opioid consumption, impaired early mobilization, and systemic inflammatory response.
The Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block is a regional anesthesia technique targeting the sensory innervation of the anterior hip capsule and may provide effective analgesia while preserving motor function. Improved pain control and opioid reduction may decrease the incidence of postoperative delirium.

This prospective, randomized, parallel-group controlled trial aims to evaluate whether the addition of ultrasound-guided PENG block to spinal anesthesia reduces the incidence of postoperative delirium within 72 hours after primary total hip arthroplasty in patients aged 65 years or older. Delirium will be assessed using the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) by blinded outcome assessors.
Secondary outcomes include postoperative opioid consumption, pain intensity (NRS), time to first rescue opioid, postoperative nausea and vomiting, time to mobilization, block-related adverse events, and perioperative inflammatory indices (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio).
The study will enroll 144 patients randomized 1:1 to spinal anesthesia alone or spinal anesthesia plus PENG block.
Read the detailed description
Postoperative delirium is a frequent and serious complication in older adults undergoing major orthopedic surgery, including total hip arthroplasty. Its incidence in this population ranges from 10% to 30% and is associated with prolonged hospital stay, increased healthcare costs, delayed functional recovery, long-term cognitive impairment, and increased mortality. Among modifiable perioperative risk factors, inadequate pain control, higher opioid consumption, postoperative nausea and vomiting, sleep disturbances, delayed mobilization, and systemic inflammatory response play an important role.
Regional anesthesia techniques may reduce delirium risk by improving analgesia, decreasing opioid requirements, and attenuating surgical stress and inflammatory response. The Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block is an ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia technique targeting the articular branches supplying the anterior hip capsule. It has been shown to provide effective analgesia after hip surgery while largely preserving quadriceps motor function, potentially facilitating early mobilization.
This study is a prospective, randomized, parallel-group controlled trial designed to evaluate whether the addition of ultrasound-guided PENG block to spinal anesthesia reduces the incidence of postoperative delirium in patients aged 65 years or older undergoing primary elective total hip arthroplasty.
Eligible patients (ASA II-III) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive:
spinal anesthesia with standard multimodal postoperative analgesia (control group), or spinal anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided PENG block plus standard multimodal postoperative analgesia (intervention group).
Randomization will be computer-generated with concealed allocation. Outcome assessors evaluating delirium and functional endpoints will be blinded to group assignment. The anesthesiologist performing the block cannot be blinded but will not participate in postoperative outcome assessment.
The primary endpoint is the incidence of postoperative delirium within 72 hours after surgery, assessed at least once daily using the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) by trained, blinded personnel. Documentation review for delirium-related symptoms and use of antidelirium medications will complement, but not replace, structured CAM assessment.
Secondary endpoints include cumulative opioid consumption during the first 48 postoperative hours (expressed as morphine milligram equivalents), pain intensity at rest and during movement (Numeric Rating Scale), time to first rescue opioid administration, incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, time to first mobilization, and block-related adverse events.
Additionally, perioperative inflammatory response will be explored using routinely collected complete blood count parameters. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) will be calculated at predefined time points (baseline, 24 hours, and 48 hours postoperatively). Exploratory analyses will assess associations between these inflammatory indices and postoperative delirium.
The planned sample size is 144 patients (72 per group), calculated to detect a clinically relevant reduction in delirium incidence with 80% power and a two-sided alpha of 0.05, accounting for potential dropouts.
The study will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and Good Clinical Practice principles. Written informed consent will be obtained from all participants prior to enrollment.

Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI)
Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) is used as a composite marker of systemic inflammatory activation. It is calculated from peripheral venous blood samples using the formula:
SIRI = (Neutrophil count × Monocyte count) / Lymphocyte count All parameters are obtained from routine complete blood count (CBC) analysis and expressed in ×10⁹/L.
SIRI reflects the interaction between innate immune activation (neutrophils and monocytes) and adaptive immune suppression (lymphocytes). Higher SIRI values indicate greater systemic inflammatory response.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing 0.2% ropivacaine in people with Hip Osteoarthritis, run by Poznan University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Poland.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Malgorzata Reysner, MD PhD (+48 61 8320122, mreysner@ump.edu.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence of postoperative delirium (time frame: 12 hours after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 May 2026.
