Posterior Pericapsular Deep-gluteal Block

Sponsor: Ankara Etlik City Hospital

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether adding a posterior pericapsular deep-gluteal (PPD) block to pericapsular nerve group (PENG) and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) blocks improves pain control after total hip arthroplasty. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does adding a posterior pericapsular deep-gluteal block reduce clinically significant pain during movement in the early postoperative period? * Does adding this block reduce postoperative pain and opioid requirements? * Does adding this block improve functional recovery after surgery? Researchers will compare patients receiving PENG and LFCN blocks with patients receiving PENG and LFCN blocks plus a posterior pericapsular deep-gluteal block to determine whether blocking the posterior region of the hip provides additional pain relief. Participants will: * Receive ultrasound-guided nerve blocks before surgery according to their assigned study group. * Undergo total hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia. * Have their pain assessed at predefined times after surgery, including during movement. * Be evaluated for opioid requirements and functional recovery after surgery.
