Overview

Brief Summary

The objective is to identify the optimal dose of SABER-Bupivacaine for postoperative pain control in patients undergoing elective arthroscopic shoulder surgery on the basis of pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety evaluations. The study duration consists of a screening period up to 14 days and a treatment period 14 days with a long term follow up visit at 6 months. The study will provide further data on safety.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Pain Intensity (PI)

Time Frame: 0-3 days after surgery

Mean pain intensity on movement AUC (time-normalized AUC) during the period 0-3 days after surgery. Pain intensity was assessed with a standard 0 to 10 numeric rating scale (NRS), where no pain at all was rated as 0 and the worst pain imaginable was rated as 10. The AUC is computed for each patient using the standard trapezoidal rule and normalised by dividing by the time interval over which it is computed. This normalisation converts the AUC to the natural pain scale (NRS 0-10) to allow for better translation of the clinical treatment effect magnitude.

Supplemental Opioid Use

Time Frame: 0-3 days after surgery

Cumulative IV morphine-equivalent dose of opioid rescue medication

Secondary Outcomes

  • Opioid Related Side Effects(0-7 days after surgery)
  • Time to First Opioid Rescue Medication Usage(0-14 days after surgery)
