Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of a femoral nerve block vs. an adductor canal block on pain and quadriceps muscle strength for knee arthroscopy surgery.

Primary Outcome

Quadriceps strength will be tested with a dynamometer before the nerve block and 20 minutes after the nerve block prior to surgery. The dynamometer measures the strength of the quadriceps muscles in the seated position while pushing against the device. We are trying to measure the effect of both femoral and adductor canal nerve blocks on quadriceps strength.
