NCT03502018

Brief Summary

This study will examine the efficacy of Liposomal Bupivacaine (Exparel) in hip fracture patients undergoing hip hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures through a posterior approach. Post-operative measures will be assessing pain, overall opiate use, delirium, time-to-ambulation and discharge status.

Eligibility Criteria

Age65 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsOlder Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Men and women sixty-five years of age and older with isolated intracapsular hip fractures undergoing hemi arthroplasty through a posterior approach with the ability to consent to the study.

You may not qualify if:
