Liposomal bupivacaine (LB) single-injection pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has demonstrated effective analgesia both before and after surgery, while preserving motor function in patients with hip fracture. Although regional nerve block is a well-established component of preoperative multimodal analgesia, its potential role and underlying mechanisms in the prevention of DVT in elderly patients with hip fracture remain largely unexplored.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and analysis<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study will be conducted as a double-blind, randomised, sham-controlled, prospective clinical trial.
