Participant Flow

All patients were consented during preoperative visit at MD Anderson Cancer Center from August 31st 2016 to August 31st 2017.

One patient was excluded after randomization because of scheduled opioid use, and 2 patients were excluded because the surgical approach changed to minimally invasive surgery (these 3 patients were never treated). All patients treated completed the trial.

Measure
Active Comparator: Bupivacaine Group
Local wound infiltration with Bupivacaine immediately prior to wound closure during gynecological surgery. Participants discharged with analgesic opioid regimen of Oxycodone 1-2 tabs (5mg) by mouth every 4 hours as needed for pain. Participants complete a pill diary every day for 30 days after hospital discharge. Participants called or emailed and asked questions about symptoms 3 and 7 days after hospital discharge, and then 1 time every week after that for a total of 8 weeks.
Experimental: Liposomal Bupivacaine + Bupivacaine Group
Local wound infiltration with Liposomal Bupivacaine and 0.25% Bupivacaine admixed immediately prior to wound closure during gynecological surgery. Participants discharged with analgesic opioid regimen of Oxycodone 1-2 tabs (5 mg) by mouth every 4 hours as needed for pain. Participants complete a pill diary every day for 30 days after hospital discharge. Participants called or emailed and asked questions about symptoms 3 and 7 days after hospital discharge, and th3en 1 time every week after that for a total of 8 weeks.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 0, 2 and 4 postoperatively, up to 8 weeks

Daily pain scores were ascertained by routine nursing care every 4 hours while awake, on a 0 to 10 scale. Descriptive statistics and graphical methods used to summarize MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI) scores at each assessment time by treatment arm. For each symptom component, individuals were asked to rank symptom severity during the previous 24 hours on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being "not present "and 10 being "as bad as you can imagine". Symptom interference was also assessed on a 0 to 10 scale, with 0 being "did not interfere" and 10 being "interfered completely". Higher values represent worst outcomes.
