Brief Summary

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

Liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel) has been used as an adjunct to pain management in the perioperative setting. However, the efficacy of the drug has not bewen studied in patients with benign soft tissue tumor resections. The goal of the study is to see if Exparel controls pain and improves functional outcomes for patients after these procedures compared to the current standard Bupivacaine HCL.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel) has been used as an adjunct to pain management in the perioperative setting. However, the efficacy of the drug has not bewen studied in patients with benign soft tissue tumor resections. The goal of the study is to see if Exparel controls pain and improves functional outcomes for patients after these procedures compared to the current standard Bupivacaine HCL.

Patients will be randomly assigned Exparel or Bupivacaine HCL intraoperatively during the tumor resection. The amount administered is based on the size of wound after tumor resection. The patients are then provided a pain diary in which they record the amount of pain medications taken, VAS pain scores, and musculoskeletal and tumor society score (MSTS) for the first week postoperatively.

The study will end once 140 patients have been enrolled. Data will be analyzed comparing morphine equivalents, pain scores, and functional scores between the groups.
