We compared early postoperative pain in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy with versus without the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block.

A retrospective chart review of prospectively collected data was performed to identify patients who underwent hip arthroscopy at a single institution between May 2019 and October 2021.

Patients were included if they received general anesthesia and were opioid naive. Patients who received the PENG block were compared with patients who did not.

Opioid, benzodiazepine, and antiemetic medication administration was recorded both intraoperatively and for the duration of the patient’s stay in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU).

Opioids administered were converted to morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs). Pain was assessed with a visual analog scale. Time to discharge (in minutes) and complications were recorded.
