Official Title: Liposomal Bupivacaine With Standard Bupivacaine Versus Dexmedetomidine With Standard Bupivacaine for Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block in Distal Radial Fracture Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Tr
Brief Summary:
Brachial plexus blocks (BPB) are commonly used to provide regional anaesthesia for patients undergoing distal radial fracture surgery.Distal radial (DR) fracture surgery is a commonly performed orthopaedic surgery and is usually associated with moderate postoperative pain.Poor postoperative pain control can impair rehabilitation, delay recovery and negatively impact outcomes after surgery.Liposomal bupivacaine (EXPAREL) is a multivesicular formulation of bupivacaine that allows rapid absorption and prolonged…
