A Randomized, Double-Blind, Comparative Study of the Analgesic Efficacy of Perineural Dexmedetomidine as Adjuvant to Ropivacaine versus Ropivacaine Alone in Ultrasound Guided Saphenous Nerve Block after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Surgery

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Comparative Study of the Analgesic Efficacy of Perineural Dexmedetomidine as Adjuvant to Ropivacaine versus Ropivacaine Alone in Ultrasound Guided Saphenous Nerve Block after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Surgery
