Assessment of Knee Pain in Patients Receiving Continuous Femoral Nerve Block Combined With Either Ultrasound Guided Posterior Capsular Injection or Selective Tibial Nerve Block Following Total Knee Arthroplasty
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Ropivacaine with Epinephrine and Ropivacaine for Posterior Knee Infiltration. Completed, enrolled 80 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
To assess pain control after total knee replacement surgery using two different nerve block techniques. The 2 methods are: 1. Continuous femoral nerve block with ultrasound guided posterior capsular injection 2. Continuous femoral nerve block with ultrasound selective tibial nerve block.
