What this study is about

Researchers are testing whether a continuous nerve block is better than a single injection nerve block after knee replacement surgery to reduce pain and opioid use. Participants will receive either a continuous or single injection of medication into the adductor canal before their surgery. The trial will last 183 days, starting from the day of surgery.
