Subsartorial adductor canal vs femoral nerve block for analgesia after total knee replacement.
This study compares both single-shot femoral nerve block (FNB) and adductor canal block (ACB), side to side, in the same patients undergoing bilateral TKA. It found that the use of ACBs vs FNBs in knee arthroplasty patients yielded similar results in absolute pain scores, motor strength and patient satisfaction.
