Liposomal Bupivacaine
for Bowel Surgery Pain Management
This study will be a single center, prospective triple blinded randomized controlled study, comparing the use of liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel) to regular bupivacaine with adjuncts in bilateral mid-abdominal transverse abdominis plane (TAP) blocks for patients undergoing laparoscopic colectomy procedures.
Recruiting3 awards Phase 4
Bupivacaine, Liposomal Bupivacaine, and Ropivacaine
for Aortic Disease
The goal of this pilot study is to compare single shot rectus sheath blocks of liposomal bupivacaine/bupivacaine mixture to bilateral rectus sheath catheters infused with ropivacaine (standard of care at our facility) in patients undergoing vascular surgery with an open mid-abdominal laparotomy incision. This study will assess the safety and feasibility of this approach compared to standard of care. Participants will receive either a single dose of liposomal bupivacaine/bupivacaine mixture intraoperatively at the end of surgery through bilateral rectus sheath blocks (LB/B group) or the standard of care ropivacaine intraoperatively at the end of surgery through bilateral rectus sheath blocks with the insertion of bilateral RS catheter for continuous ropivacaine infusion plus repeated daily boluses (Catheter group; standard care). They will be assessed for differences in the rate of postoperative complications, resources consumed with each intervention, as well as postoperative pain scores, opioid consumption, hospital and PACU length of stay, patient's satisfaction, and quality of recovery, and hospital length of stay.
