About this trial
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of adding magnesium sulfate to bupivacaine in ultrasound-guided transmuscular quadratus lumborum block for postoperative analgesia in adult patients underdoing hip arthroplasty. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does Magnesium sulphate lower Pain score (VAS) postoperatively. * Does Magnesium sulphate lowerTotal opioid consumption postoperatively. and What side effects do participants have when taking Magnesium sulphate? Researchers will compare Magnesium sulphate to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Magnesium sulphate works to lower pain score.
Participants will:
* Take with have ultrasound-guided transmuscular quadratus lumborum block after surgery using bupivacaine with Magnesium sulphate or with placebo * Followed up 48 hours postoperatively to monitor pain score or any reported side effect.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
postopeative pain Score
The degree of pain will be assessed after surgery by Visual Analogue Score (score for the severity of pain in the range 0-10, where 0 = no pain and 10 = severe pain) at 6 , 12 , 24 , 48 hours postoperatively.
Secondary outcomes
Total opioid consumption
total morphine consumption after surgery
