Summary

This study tests two different methods of a nerve block (iPACK) to manage pain after total knee replacement. The goal is to find which approach provides better pain relief and reduces the need for strong painkillers. 120 adults having knee replacement will be randomly assigned to one of the two block techniques. The results could help improve recovery and comfort after surgery.
