New numbing shot aims to cut pain pills after hernia surgery
NCT ID NCT02128646
Summary
This study tested whether a special long-acting numbing medication (Liposomal Bupivacaine) could provide better pain relief after hernia repair surgery. Researchers gave the medication to 19 patients having either open or minimally invasive hernia surgery. The goal was to see if this single injection could reduce the need for opioid pain pills and improve patient comfort in the days after surgery.
