ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a method called a femoral nerve block, which is a way to manage pain during arthroscopic surgery for a meniscus tear in the knee. The researchers want to find out how effective this nerve block is when combined with spinal anesthesia, which is a type of anesthesia that numbs the body from the waist down. The goal is to improve pain control and recovery for patients undergoing this common knee surgery.

To be eligible for the trial, participants need to be scheduled for meniscal surgery and must understand the study well enough to give their consent to join. However, individuals with certain conditions, like additional knee injuries or those who have had previous knee surgeries, cannot participate. If you join the study, you can expect to receive detailed information about the procedure and its potential benefits and risks. It's important to note that this trial is currently not recruiting participants, so it may not be possible to join just yet.
