The EXPAREL is a bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension which is infiltrated via the TAP. The data will be presented at the annual American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine meeting in November.
Twenty-four patients were evaluated for the study after undergoing robotic prostatectomy with EXPAREL via TAP infiltration. On average, these patients required less than one oxycodone tablet per day from discharge to the 10-day visit. One hundred percent of subjects also reported being satisfied or extremely satisfied with the postsurgical pain control.
