Official title
Comparison of Liposomal Bupivacaine Versus Non-liposomal Bupivacaine for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: a Prospective, Double-blinded, Noninferiority Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is to validate the analgesic efficacy of admixed Liposomal bupivacaine (LB) + bupivacaine compared with plain bupivacaine when injected for interscalene nerve block (ISNB) for total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). We hypothesize that admixed LB will be non-inferior to plain bupivacaine in terms of postoperative opioid consumption following TSA. The primary outcome of this study will be opioid consumption over the first 72 hours following surgery. Secondary outcomes will include: pain scores, opioid-related adverse events, block related adverse events, pain related phone calls, pain related ED visits and patient satisfaction.
