Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
After surgery, patients will be asked to record their pain, medication use, pain scores and symptoms in a diary for each 12 hour interval up to 72 hours. Someone will also call twice a day during the 72 hours after surgery to ask about pain level and pain medication use.
Patients will also receive a phone call 7-10 days after the surgery to ask about their recovery and pain level.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Standard Bupivacaine
Patients in the control group will receive 0.25% bupivacaine hydrochloride (bupivacaine HCl). 10cc will be injected bilaterally into each uterosacral ligament prior to the colpotomy incision. After entry into the posterior cul-de-sac, an additional 10cc of will be injected bilaterally into the deeper uterosacral ligaments.
Bupivacaine Hydrochloride
We currently administer local plain bupivacaine during vaginal hysterectomy to decrease pain in the postoperative period. Bupivacaine is an anesthetic that works by blocking nerve conduction and producing a numbing effect.
Liposomal Bupivacaine
Patients in the study group will receive a mixture of 0.5% bupivacaine HCl and liposomal bupivacaine in 1:1 ratio. 10cc of the mixture will be injected bilaterally into each uterosacral ligament prior to the colpotomy incision. After entry into the posterior cul-de-sac, an additional 10cc will be injected bilaterally into the deeper uterosacral ligaments
Liposomal bupivacaine
Liposomal bupivacaine is a novel formulation of local bupivacaine and allows prolonged release of the medication, thereby providing longer lasting effects. It is approved by the FDA and has been shown to provide excellent pain control after surgery.
