Trial Outcomes & Findings for Comparison of Sternal Wound Infiltration With Liposomal Bupivacaine v. Bupivacaine Hydrochloride (NCT NCT03270514)
NCT ID: NCT03270514
Last Updated: 2021-09-05
Results Overview
Postoperative pain scores evaluated by numeric rating scale or (NRS) where 0- no pain and 10- worst pain, at rest and at movement
COMPLETED
PHASE3
60 participants
NRS scores will be evaluated every 4 hours until 24 hours post-operatively, every 8 hours until 48 hours post-operatively, and every 12 hours for 72 hours post-operatively
