Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators want to explore the analgesic effect of Adductor Canal Blockade (a peripheral nerve block) in high pain responding patients after arthroscopic knee surgery. The investigators hypothesize that the nerve block will have an abrupt analgesic effect.
