Location of Injection of Local Anesthetics in the Adductor Canal Block: A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Effect on Postoperative Analgesia and Motor Power
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating lidocaine and ropivacaine for Anesthesia and Adductor Canal Block. Completed, enrolled 108 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The adductor canal block (ACB) is the standard of care for analgesia after Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) repair. ACB is performed by injecting local anesthetic (freezing) in the subsartorial canal in the thigh which is about 7-10cm long. Preliminary evidence suggests that different injection sites within the canal may produce different degrees of analgesia and quadriceps motor block. This trial seeks to determine the effects of various ACB injection sites on postoperative analgesia and motor power following ACL repair.
