Comparing two pain relief methods after ACL knee surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests two types of nerve blocks (pain-relieving injections) to see which works better after ACL knee surgery. It will help find the best way to reduce pain after the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 16 years old or older
- You are scheduled for knee surgery to repair a torn ACL (anterior cruciate ligament)
- You are in good general health (ASA I or II)
- You are having spinal anesthesia (numbing from the waist down) for your surgery

This trial tests two ways to manage pain after ACL reconstruction: a combination of medications (multimodal analgesia) versus a nerve block in the thigh (femoral block). The goal is to see which approach provides better pain control and recovery.
This trial compares two different nerve blocks to see which one controls pain better after knee replacement surgery. Both are given along with a continuous pain pump, and the goal is to improve recovery with fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways of numbing the knee after replacement surgery. One uses a continuous nerve block in the thigh, and the other adds an extra injection behind the knee to see if it improves pain relief and recovery.
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.
This trial compares two ways to numb the knee area after knee replacement surgery, both using nerve blocks. The goal is to see which approach provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study compares two different types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after arthroscopic knee surgery. You will receive one of the blocks after your surgery, and your pain levels will be tracked.
