Summary
This study evaluates the effect of anesthesia on mortality after surgical repair of proximal
femur fracture.
Patients will receive either a subarachnoid block or a combination of peripheral nerve blocks
and light general anesthesia (PNB/GA).
The investigators hypothesis is that a combination of peripheral nerve blocks with an opioid
free light anesthesia may have more favourable outcomes.
Both groups will be followed up for assessment of post-operative morbidity and mortality.
