Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
effective analgesic femoral nerve block
postoperative pain. it will be assessed using numerical rating scale (NRS). NRS, 0 = no pain; 10 = worst pain imaginable; if NRS ≥ 3, pain (ineffective block) is considered, other wise a successful block will be considered.
in recovery unit (one hour after surgery)
Interventions
all patients will receive femoral nerve block using same volume of ropivacaine but in different concentrations
