NCT01507220
Brief Summary:
This study is designed to compare the standard of care against EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome extended-release injectable suspension) to determine if total opioid consumption is reduced when using EXPAREL therefore possibly reducing total hospitalization costs.
Detailed Description:
This is a phase 4, prospective, sequential, open-label study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and health economic benefits of intraoperative local wound infiltration with EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome extended-release injectable suspension) compared with postsurgical administration of standardized intravenous (IV) morphine sulfate for postsurgical analgesia in adult patients undergoing open colectomy with general anesthesia.
