What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

In this prospective study, emergency physicians perform ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block for patients with hip fractures. We compare the effectiveness of analgesia and patient satisfaction of ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block with liberal use of the pain medicine in the emergency department. The primary outcome is the assessment of time to relief the pain with fewer adverse effects and less rescue pain medication use. The secondary outcome is patient satisfaction and adverse effects for different method of pain control.
