Pain, Postoperative Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of IPACK Nerve Blocks on Early ACL Pain Scores
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether using an anesthetic technique called IPACK block will control pain after ACL reconstruction surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: - if participants who receive the IPACK block prior to ACL reconstruction experience less pain after surgery and at 1 day after surgery - if participants who receive the IPACK block prior to ACL reconstruction require less short-term opioid use immediately after surgery and up to one week after surgery. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to 1 of 2 groups: Use of IPACK block during ACL reconstruction vs. placebo (a placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug). Neither the participant nor the investigator will know which group the participants has been assigned to. Researchers will compare self-reported pain scores and short-term opioid use of all study participants.

Primary | Pain Scores | Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Participants self-report their post surgical pain from a scale of 0 to 10. | Immediately after surgery; 1 hour, 2-3 hours, and 24 hours after surgery | |
Primary | Opioid Consumption | Short-term postoperative opioid consumption will be measured in the PACU by calculating the milligram-equivalents of morphine used by patients' starting at their arrival until their discharge. This data will be extracted from the patient's chart on EPIC. Information about the patient's opioid use from discharge until 1-week post-operatively will be collected either in person at the patient's first outpatient post-operative follow up or via patient phone call one week after surgery. | 2-3 hours after surgery; 1 week after surgery |
