Adductor-Canal-Blockade Versus the Femoral Nerve Block Effect on Muscle Strength and Mobilization in Healthy Volunteers

Comparison of the Efficacy of the Adductor-Canal-Blockade Versus the Femoral Nerve Block on Muscle Strength and Mobilization in Healthy Volunteers: a Randomized Study

• Status: Completed
• Phase: Phase 4
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 12 (actual)
• Sponsor: Rigshospitalet, Denmark · Academic / Other
• Sex: Male
• Age: 18 Years – 30 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of the Adductor-Canal-Blockade versus the femoral nerve block versus placebo on muscle strength in healthy volunteers. The investigators hypothesize that the Adductor-Canal-Blockade results in a lesser reduction of the quadriceps muscle strength compared to the femoral nerve block.

Conditions

• Muscle Strength
