Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is being done to evaluate pain management regimens following ambulatory hand surgery. Improved pain control may be associated with decreased complications, decreased pain scores, decreased opioid dependence, improved patient comfort and satisfaction, and reduced healthcare costs. Liposomal bupivacaine is an FDA-approved local anesthetic. There will be two groups. One group will receive liposomal bupivacaine. One group will not. The results will be compared.

Patients will be over the age of 18 ambulatory hand surgery. Approximately 40 subjects will participate in this study at LLU.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control Group

Patients in Group 1 (Plain Bupivacaine) will be treated intra-operatively with injections of 0.25% bupivacaine, with 10 mL (25 mg) delivered to perform a field block of the soft tissue and subfascial plane at the initiation of the surgical procedure.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Experimental Group

Patients in Group 2 (Liposomal Bupivacaine + Plain Bupivacaine) will be treated intra-operatively with the initial injection of 0.25% bupivacaine 5 - 10 mL (12.5 - 25 mg) delivered to perform a field block of the soft tissue and subfascial plane at the initiation of the procedure.
