Official title
Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Allocation Concealed Study Comparing the Efficacy of Liposomal Bupivacaine Over Standard Bupivacaine Plus Dexamethasone in Quadriceps Sparing Femoral Nerve Block and Wound Infiltration for Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and duration of pain relief after total knee arthroplasty provided by a single injection of liposomal bupivacaine (EXPAREL®) versus standard bupivacaine with an adjuvant, dexamethasone when administered as a quadriceps sparing femoral nerve block and periarticular injection. It is hypothesized that liposomal bupivacaine is superior to standard bupivacaine with dexamethasone and will decrease time to discharge readiness.
