NCT01509807

Brief Summary

This study is designed to compare the standard of care against EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension) to determine if total opioid consumption is reduced when using EXPAREL, therefore possibly reducing total hospitalization costs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Health Economic Benefits - Total Cost of Hospitalization

    1\) Total cost of hospitalization until the time hospital discharge order is written or through Day 30, whichever is sooner.

    Wound closure to time hospital discharge order is written or Day 30, whichever is sooner.

  • Health Economic Benefit - Length of Stay

    Time from completion of wound closure until hospital discharge written or through Day 30, whichever was sooner

    Wound closure to time hospital discharge order is written or Day 30, whichever is sooner.

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Incidence of Opioid-related Adverse Events

Study Arms (2)

Group 1

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

IV morphine sulfate (or Sponsor-approved equivalent), Standard of Care (SOC)

Drug: IV morphine sulfate or Sponsor-approved equivalent

Group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension)

Drug: EXPAREL

Interventions

Patients enrolled in this group will receive IV morphine sulfate or Sponsor-approved equivalent via a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump, as needed.

Group 1

Patients enrolled in this group will receive 266 mg EXPAREL diluted with preservative-free 0.9% normal saline to a total volume of 30 cc and administered via wound infiltration prior to wound closure. When not contraindicated, 30 mg IV ketorolac will be given at the end of surgery. If not indicated, IV non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) may be substituted per the site's standard of care.

Also known as: bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension
Group 2

You may qualify if:

  • Male or female, 18 years of age and older
  • Patients scheduled to undergo ileostomy reversal
  • Ability to provide informed consent, adhere to study visit schedule, and complete all assessments.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with a history of hypersensitivity or idiosyncratic reactions or intolerance to any local anesthetic, opioid, or propofol.
  • Patients who abuse alcohol or other drug substance.
  • Patients with severe hepatic impairment.
  • Patients currently pregnant or who may become pregnant during the course of the study or who are unwilling to use acceptable means of contraception for at lest one month before and one month after dosing.

  • Patients who have received an investigational drug within 30 days prior to study drug administration, or planned administration of another investigational product or procedure during the patient's participation in this study.
  • In addition, the patient will be ineligible if he/she meets the following criteria during surgery:
  • Patients who have any concurrent surgical procedure.
  • Patients who receive intraoperative administration of opioids (other than fentanyl or analogs) or any other analgesic, local anesthetics, or anti-inflammatory agents.
