简要总结
Knee replacement surgery is often followed by significant pain, which can slow recovery and limit early movement. Nerve blocks are commonly used to reduce this pain. The Femoral Nerve Block has been used for many years but may cause weakness in the thigh muscles, affecting walking after surgery. The Adductor Canal Block is a newer method that provides good pain relief while better preserving muscle strength.
This study aims to compare these two techniques in patients undergoing knee replacement surgery. The objective is to find out which block gives better pain relief, fewer side effects, and faster return of mobility after the operation.
