Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Liposomal Bupivacaine

Participants will receive local wound infiltration with Liposomal Bupivacaine.

Drug: Exparel 133 MG Per 10 ML Injection
Local wound infiltration with Exparel 133 MG Per 10 ML Injection.

Active Comparator: Standard 0.25% Bupivacaine

Participants will receive local wound infiltration with Standard 0.25% Bupivacaine.

Drug: Bupivacaine Hydrochloride
Local wound infiltration with 0.25% standard bupivacaine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of patients who are opiate-free [48 hours postoperatively]

    Percentage of patients who are opiate-free at 48 hours postoperatively.

  2. Percentage of patients who are opiate-free [10-14 days postoperatively]

    Percentage of patients who are opiate-free at 10-14 days postoperatively.

  3. Parents' postoperative pain measure (PPPM) scores [48 hours postoperatively]

    15-item, yes/no behavioral checklist based on non-verbal pain cues children show following surgery. Scale is from 0 to 15, with higher scores denoting more severe pain. A score of 6+ has been validated as a threshold for a child experiencing clinically significant pain.

  4. Parents' postoperative pain measure (PPPM) scores [10-14 days postoperatively]

    15-item, yes/no behavioral checklist based on non-verbal pain cues children show following surgery. Scale is from 0 to 15, with higher scores denoting more severe pain. A score of 6+ has been validated as a threshold for a child experiencing clinically significant pain.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Amount of opioid medication used post-discharge [10-14 days postoperatively]

    Amount of opioid medication (in OMEQ) used post-discharge.

  2. Amount of opioid medication leftover [10-14 days postoperatively]

    Amount of opioid medication (in OMEQ) leftover

  3. Cumulative incidence of complications [10-14 days postoperatively]

    Cumulative incidence of complications related to local anesthetic systemic toxicity.
