Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Canal Block and Capsular Injection

Adductor canal block with a continuous catheter and ultrasound guided posterior capsular injection with local anesthetic solution.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Canal Block and Capsular Injection

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Continuous Adductor canal block with 15ml of ropivacaine 0.2% with epinephrine 1:400,000 followed by an infusion of ropivacaine 0.2% at 6ml per hour for 2 days post operatively. This is combined with ultrasound guided posterior capsular knee injection with 30ml ropivacaine 0.2% with epinephrine 1:400,000.

Femoral with Tibial Nerve Block

Continuous femoral nerve block with catheter and selective tibial nerve block in the popliteal fossa.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Femoral Nerve Block with Tibial Nerve Block

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Continuous femoral nerve block with 15ml of ropivacaine 0.2% followed by an infusion of ropivacaine 0.2% at 6ml per hour for 2 days after surgery combined with tibial nerve block in the popliteal fossa with ropivacaine 0.5% up to 15ml.
