Official title
Defining the Optimal Location to Place Local Anesthetic for an Adductor Canal Block for Pediatric Knee Arthroscopy Patients
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The aim of the current project is to address a gap in the existing literature related to optimal placement of local anesthetic for an adductor canal (AC) block. The current study seeks to examine whether placement of the local anesthetic in the AC for knee surgery is more effective at reducing post-operative pain following arthroscopic knee surgery compared to a control. Specifically, if the anesthetic is more beneficial than the control group, the research will determine which location is optimal by comparing groups that receive anesthetic in the midpoint of the thigh, the proximal end of the thigh, or the distal end of the thigh.
