Liposomal Bupivacaine Versus Standard Bupivacaine Plus Dexamethasone in Quadriceps Sparing Femoral Nerve Block and Wound Infiltration for Total Knee Arthroplasty

NCT02624856 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2020-01-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and duration of pain relief after total knee arthroplasty provided by a single injection of liposomal bupivacaine (EXPAREL®) versus standard bupivacaine with an adjuvant, dexamethasone when administered as a quadriceps sparing femoral nerve block and periarticular injection. It is hypothesized that liposomal bupivacaine is superior to standard bupivacaine with dexamethasone and will decrease time to discharge readiness.
