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.

Conditions

  • Bowel Obstruction

Interventions

DRUG

IV morphine sulfate

Patients in this group will receive IV morphine sulfate via patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump, as needed. The PCA pump will be set up postsurgically as soon as possible and prior to the patient leaving the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) or immediately upon transfer to the floor if the stay in the PACU is less than 1 hour.

DRUG

EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension)

Patients in this group will receive 266 mg EXPAREL diluted with preservative free 0.9% normal saline to a total volume of 30 cc and administered via wound infiltration prior to wound closure. When not contraindicated, 30 mg IV ketorolac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), may be substituted per the site's standard of care. All patients will be offered rescue analgesia, as needed.
