Effect of Volume of Local Anesthetic for Adductor Canal Block on Quadriceps Muscle Function: A Dose Finding Study
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Ropivacaine 0.5% for Postoperative Pain. Completed, enrolled 26 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Adductor canal block is commonly offered to provide pain relief following knee surgery with the hope that they cause less leg weakness than traditionally performed femoral nerve block. Infrequently, adductor canal blocks also result in leg weakness thereby potentially limiting the advantages of the technique. Investigators want to find out the effective dose for a 30% response (volume of local anesthetic which would result in clinically significant weakness of the leg)
