Summary
Falls are a common problem in elderly people which they have to receive the operation.
Hemiarthroplasty is one of the common orthopedics operations. The prompt operation and good
pain control will provide the good recovery and outcome. The investigators compare the
efficacy of postoperative pain control between Intrathecal morphine 0.1 milligrams (mg.) with
the local infiltration of 0.25% Bupivacaine for 20 milliliters (ml.) in patients received hip
hemiarthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.
