Ques 8 : All the following statements regarding the study ‘Comparison of genicular nerve block with adductor canal block for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction’ are true, Except

 B)   Adductor canal block and Genicular Nerve Block provide comparable postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing ACL Repair.

C)   Adductor Canal Block provides incomplete analgesia to the knee joint

D)   Genicular nerve block is a unique block as there is no sparing of any area of the knee joint capsule
