Intervention: liposomal bupivacaine (Drug)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Radial and Ulnar Arterial Diameter

Time Frame: 1 hour

Radial and ulnar artery diameter was measured at baseline and 60 min after with a Doppler ultrasound system. A marker was used to indicate the site of initial transducer placement on the forearm to ensure that subsequent scans were performed at the same location.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Pain Measured by Numerical Rating Scale(1 month)
