An example of a nerve block frequently utilized in the Emergency Department (ED) is a Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB), in which local anesthetics are injected underneath the pelvic iliac fascia in order to block femoral, obturator and lateral cutaneous nerves to provide anesthesia of hip, thigh and knee. Case-series and historically controlled cohort studies show a single-shot FICB is a rapid, safe and easy procedure providing excellent analgesia, decreased opioid need and little risk of complications. Delirium as outcome was reported in one RCT; a decreased delirium incidence after using repetitive, blind, single-shot FICBs (not in the acute setting) with pethidine (with increased intrinsic risk of developing delirium) as comparison. In order to prevent the need for repetitive insertions, leaving a catheter would create a route in order to provide continuous analgesia with local anesthetics. Two case series describe this continuous FICB in hip fractures and reported good pain control and decreased length of hospital stay without any infectious complications. No comparison studies have been done with a continuous FICB.
