NCT04278846

Brief Summary

Patients undergoing breast reconstruction with tissue expanders will be treated with a local anesthetic during their procedure and monitor their post-operative pain level and amount of oral pain medication taken. This information will be used to determine if liposomal bupivacaine provides better and longer pain control vs. bupivacaine HCl.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (20)

  • 1 Hour Pain Assessment Numeric Rating Scale During Rest

    Pain will be assessed qualitatively through the use of numeric rating scale (0-10) during rest (NRS-R) Scale name: Numeric rating scale during rest (NRS-R) The higher scores indicate more severe pain during rest (10 meaning the worst pain, 0 meaning no pain)

    1 hour post-operatively

  • 8-12 Hour Pain Assessment Numeric Rating Scale During Rest

    Pain will be assessed qualitatively through the use of numeric rating scale (0-10) during rest (NRS-R) The higher scores indicate more severe pain during rest (10 meaning the worst pain, 0 meaning no pain)

    96 hours post-operatively

  • 36 Hour Pain Assessment Numeric Rating Scale During Activity

    Pain will be assessed qualitatively through the use of numeric rating scale (0-10) during activity (NRS-A). The higher scores indicate more severe pain during activity (10 meaning the worst pain, 0 meaning no pain) The range is 0 to 10.

    36 hours post-operatively

  • 48 Hour Pain Assessment Numeric Rating Scale During Activity

    Pain will be assessed qualitatively through the use of numeric rating scale (0-10) during activity (NRS-A). The higher scores indicate more severe pain during activity (10 meaning the worst pain,0 meaning no pain) The range is 0 to 10.
