Summary

This study looked at 79 adults having knee or leg surgery to find the right dose of a long-acting painkiller (liposomal bupivacaine) for numbing the leg nerve. Researchers tested different strengths to see which dose works best for blocking sensation and movement. The goal was to gather information, not to provide a new treatment.
