Brief Summary: Distal radius fracture repair often causes significant postoperative pain A supraclavicular nerve block is an effective and proven method to help reduce postoperative pain and decrease opioid use around the time of upper extremity surgery Liposomal bupivacaine Exparel has been approved for use around the brachial plexus but its analgesic efficacy has limited data The investigators goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of Exparel as compared to plain bupivacaine The investigators hope to ensure the quality of pain control around the time of distal radius fracture repair and reduce the variability of care at the investigators institution by prospectively and rigorously collecting perioperative data during this study
Detailed Description: Purpose Distal radius fracture repair often causes significant postoperative pain A supraclavicular nerve block is an effective and proven method to help reduce postoperative pain and decrease opioid use around the time of shoulder surgery Liposomal bupivacaine Exparel has been approved for use around the brachial plexus but its analgesic efficacy has limited data The investigators goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of Exparel as compared to the investigators prior standard practice of using plain bupivacaine The investigators hope to ensure the quality of pain control around the time of distal radius fracture repair and reduce the variability of care at the investigators institution by prospectively and rigorously collecting perioperative data during this study

Participants Adult participants age 18 undergoing distal radius fracture repair at the University of North Carolina ambulatory surgery center and University of North Carolina Hillsborough campus Exclusion Criteria the below are simply contraindications to regional anesthesia in general this is a pragmatic study to evaluate the quality of care for these subjects with no additional exclusion criteria- Contraindications to regional anesthesia- Significant peripheral neuropathy or neurological disorder affecting the upper extremity- Pregnancy- Cognitive or psychiatric condition that might affect patient assessment andor inability to provide informed consent

Procedures methods This is a prospective randomized comparison of participants undergoing distal radius fracture repair that receive one of two types of supraclavicular nerve block Group 1 will be comprised of patients with a preoperative supraclavicular nerve block placed with 20 mL 05 bupivacaine Group 2 will be comprised of participants with a preoperative supraclavicular nerve block placed with 10 mL 05 bupivacaine and 10 mL 13 Liposomal Bupivacaine Exparel All subjects in both groups will have a similar intraoperative general anesthetic with multimodal analgesic pre-op oral medications Outcomes measured by Post anesthesia care unit assessment and telephone follow up see uploaded data collection form
