NCT ID NCT03620136
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared two ways to manage pain after knee replacement surgery: a nerve block in the thigh (adductor channel block) versus injecting numbing medicine around the knee joint. 98 adults having their first knee replacement took part. The goal was to see which method reduced the need for morphine and eased pain better.
