简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of bupivacaine HCl injections will improve pain control after skin surgery.
This is a randomized clinical trial. Approximately 100 participants will be randomized to receive either bupivacaine HCl or saline injections to help with the postsurgical pain. Patients will be provided with a take-home journal to complete indicating when and how much pain medication they required for the 3 days immediately following surgery. Participants will return the journal in-person at a follow up visit 7-21 days post-op. This study was a pilot study designed to determine the feasibility of this procedure.
Subjects currently living in the Chicago metropolitan area and meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be invited and considered for enrollment.
