First seen May 15, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a numbing injection around the knee nerves, given before surgery, can lower pain and the need for strong painkillers after knee replacement. About 70 adults with knee arthritis will be randomly assigned to get either the nerve block or a placebo injection. Researchers will track their pain, opioid use, and recovery for three months after surgery.
