Clinical Trial: Targeted Nerve Injection to the Knee (Nerve to Vastus Medialis): Comparing Two Adductor Canal Block Approaches

U.S., March 4 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07444827) titled 'Targeted Nerve Injection to the Knee (Nerve to Vastus Medialis): Comparing Two Adductor Canal Block Approaches' on Feb. 25.

Brief Summary: This randomized, double-blinded volunteer study compares two ways of performing the adductor canal (AC) nerve block at the mid-thigh to see which approach more reliably numbs the anteromedial knee. One approach is the traditional AC block placed near the saphenous nerve; the other separately targets the nerve to vastus medialis (NVM) in addition to the saphenous nerve. Healthy adult participants receive both blocks in one visit (one on each leg), with the order randomized. The primary outcome is ...
