Hip Fractures
Patients With Acute Hip Fractures Will Receive Either the PENG Block or no Block Respectively.
Hip fracture pain is often severe and traditionally managed by systemic opioids which have increased risk of side effects in frail elderly patients.

Osteoporotic Fractures
Effectiveness of Adipose Tissue Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells as Osteogenic Component in Composite Grafts
Failure rates of up to 30% are reported after proximal humeral fractures despite angular-stable devices. This may devastate not only the functional outcome but also the independence of elderly patients.

Complication of Anesthesia
Effects of Bupivacaine and Levobupivacaine on Cerebral Oxygenation During Intrathecal Anesthesia in Elderly Patients
Elderly patients with hip fracture are frail due to associated comorbidity. In these situations, regional anesthesia is recommended as it is associated to less postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
