Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The presentation of the expected primary end point was to evaluate postoperative pain decrease in patients who received intra-articular analgesic solutions after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction;Outcome was decreased pain in patients receiving analgesic solutions

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Secondary outcomes<br>Find out which analgesic solution is most effective in controlling postoperative pain;<br>Observe in which periods there is better control of postoperative pain;<br>Identify the potential systemic adverse effects of these solutions;<br>Check the amount of analgesic and anti-inflammatory adjuvant medications;<br>Check the systemic adverse effects caused by analgesic and anti-inflammatory medications and whether or not they are related to the solutions;We found no differences between the solutions, epinephrine does not add advantage in pain control, there were no differences in the use of oipoids in the studied groups (with medications), no differences in adverse effects.
