NCT03720223

Brief Summary

This is a single blinded-randomized controlled trial that recruit male patients for substitution urethroplasty using buccal mucosal graft. The study investigators aim to assess the efficacy and safety of liposomal bupivacaine injection to the buccal graft harvest site on post-operative main score, morphine equivalence requirement and oral morbidities.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Post-operative Pain score

    Continuous variables to be assessed as: Post-operative oral pain score measured using 10 point visual analogue score for pain assessment (minimum 0 or no pain to maximum 10 most painful)

    Post-op day 1

  • Morphine equivalent requirements

    Continuous variable to be assessed as : Narcotics requested by the patient and administered post-procedural day 1 and day 2 (Total and separately assessed). All narcotics will be converted to IV morphine equianalgesic equivalent conversion factors according to American Pain Society

    Post-procedure day 1

  • Morphine equivalent requirements

    Continuous variable to be assessed as : Narcotics requested by the patient and administered post-procedural day 1 and day 2 (Total and separately assessed). All narcotics will be converted to IV morphine equianalgesic equivalent conversion factors according to American Pain Society

    post-procedure day 2

  • Incident of oral Morbidities related to the procedure

    Event rate nominal variable to be assessed as: oral morbidity post-procedure categorized according to Clavien Dindo-Classification

    intraoperative up to 1 month post-procedure

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Post-operative Pain score

    Post-op day 2

  • Post-operative Pain score

    Post-op day 3

  • Post-operative Pain score

    Post-op day 1 month follow-up

  • number of participants with return to regular diet post-procedure

    Post-op day 1- 3, then 1 month follow-up (Optional daily up to post-op day 7 and monthly after 1 month up to one year or beyond)

  • Incident of post-procedural peri-oral numbness

    Post-op day 1- 3, then 1 month follow-up (Optional daily up to post-op day 7 and monthly after 1 month up to one year or beyond)

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

EXPERIMENTAL

20ml Liposomal Bupivacaine 1.3% (13.3mg/mL), injected to the buccal mucosal graft harvest site.

Drug: Liposomal Bupivacaine

Control

NO INTERVENTION

No local anesthetics injected to the buccal mucosal graft harvest site

Interventions

20ml of Liposomal Bupivacaine 1.3% (13.3mg/mL)

Also known as: Exparel
Liposomal Bupivacaine

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • male adults with urethral stricture assessed to be requiring a urethroplasty with BMG harvesting

You may not qualify if:

  • female adult patient with urethral strictures
  • prior diagnosis of chronic pain or systemic disease that would interfere with outcome assessment or metabolism of the local anesthetics or narcotics.
  • allergy to liposomal content or bupivacaine or any cross reaction to local anesthetics
  • neurological disease with impaired communication or neurological deficit to pain
  • with poor oral health with lesions
  • urethroplasties with no requirement for BMG graft
  • on daily narcotic requirement pre-operatively
  • on daily analgesia medication required for other condition
  • consented for other clinical trials which may interfere the outcome assessment
  • unwilling for post-operative interview or survey involvement
