Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to assess pain scores and opioid use when using Liposomal (Exparel) Bupivacaine versus Bupivacaine Hydrochloride.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Bupivacaine Hydrochloride
  • Drug: Liposomal Bupivacaine
Phase 4

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, multi-surgeon, single blind, non-randomized, controlled trial with breasts allocated to two parallel groups: A mixture of liposomal (Exparel) bupivacaine with plain 0.25% bupivacaine hydrochloride will be used on one side (Treatment side) as local infiltration, and plain 0.25% Bupivacaine Hydrochloride will be used in the control arm. Each breast will serve as the control for the other. The study is designed to evaluate early postoperative pain control of each of the products up to 72 hours postoperatively. These treatments are standard of care in clinical practice.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Control Breast Treatment Group: Bupivacaine Hydrochloride

Subjects undergoing breast reduction surgery will receive standard 0.25% Bupivacaine Hydrochloride in one breast.

Drug: Bupivacaine Hydrochloride
20 ml of 0.25% Bupivacaine (50 mg) with 20 ml of injectable saline (total of 40 cc) as a subcutaneous infiltration along the inframammary fold incision on one breast

Experimental: Treatment Breast Treatment Group: Liposomal (Exparel) Bupivacaine

Subjects undergoing breast reduction surgery will receive a mixture of liposomal (Exparel) bupivacaine with plain 0.25% bupivacaine hydrochloride in contralateral breast.

Drug: Bupivacaine Hydrochloride
20 ml of 0.25% Bupivacaine (50 mg) with 20 ml of injectable saline (total of 40 cc) as a subcutaneous infiltration along the inframammary fold incision on one breast

Drug: Liposomal Bupivacaine
20 ml of Liposomal (Exparel) Bupivacaine (266 mg/20 ml) on the contralateral breast
Other Names:
  • Exparel
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Pain Scores in the first 72 hours post-operatively following breast reduction [72 hours post-operatively]

      Measured using validated self-reported Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Participants rate pain using a scale of 0=none and 10=most severe.
