Knee surgery pain relief: nerve block comparison
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (iPACK and adductor canal block) to see which provides better pain relief after arthroscopic knee surgery. It may help you have less pain and recover faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 50 years old
- You are scheduled for arthroscopic knee surgery with spinal anesthesia
- You are classified as ASA I, II, or III (generally healthy or with mild to moderate health conditions)
- You do not have a bleeding disorder
- You are not taking medications for chronic pain

This study compares two types of nerve blocks (pain-numbing injections around the knee) to see which provides better pain relief after knee surgery. Both are given alongside spinal anesthesia, and the goal is to improve your comfort after the operation.
This study compares two ways of numbing nerves around the knee during surgery to see which method reduces pain better after the operation. Both methods use safe, well-established pain-relief techniques.
This study compares two ways of numbing the knee after total knee replacement surgery to see which gives better pain relief. If you are having this surgery and want to manage pain without strong opioids, this trial might help you understand your options.
This study tests whether adding an extra nerve block (called IPACK) to the standard one (adductor canal block) after knee replacement improves pain control and recovery better than the standard block alone. It aims to see if the combination reduces pain and swelling and helps you regain movement faster.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after knee replacement surgery. Both are injections around the knee that numb the area, and the goal is to find which one works better.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks—one that numbs the front of the thigh and one that adds extra numbing behind the knee—to see which provides better pain relief after arthroscopic knee surgery (like ACL or PCL repair). The goal is to help patients have less pain and recover more comfortably.
