Struggling with how to provide excellent regional pain control for hip fracture, hip replacement, or hip arthroscopy? Concerned about causing motor weakness? You’re not alone...but there ARE solutions! Pajunk Medical Systems invites you to a webinar on analgesia for hip surgery with Jeff Gadsden, MD, FRCPC, FANZCA, and Maggie Holtz, MD. They'll talk about the benefits and limitations of the pericapsular nerve group (or PENG) block, lateral femoral cutaneous block (LFCN), and the fascia iliaca block, and share which ones they prefer and why.
