Core Tip	This study employed an innovative approach by utilising a bupivacaine liposome solution for preoperative iliofascial block in patients with femoral neck fractures. By assessing cognitive function scores, plasma cortisol levels, sleep quality evaluation scales, and resting and exercise visual analog scale scores, it was demonstrated that patients receiving this anaesthetic technique experienced enhanced postoperative recovery quality. Consequently, this approach also mitigated the severity of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in these patients.
