This is a prospective, randomized trial of patients undergoing outpatient knee arthroscopy surgery and receiving a peripheral nerve block. Patients will be randomized to either receive standard discharge teaching or specialized teaching regarding pain control following a nerve block. Patients will be asked to complete a journal for 5 days recording their pain scores, opioid medication usage, and overall satisfaction with pain control at home.
