Summary

This study tested whether a long-acting painkiller (liposomal bupivacaine) works better than a standard one (bupivacaine hydrochloride) for pain after breast reduction surgery. 32 adult women participated. The main goal was to measure pain scores and how much opioid pain medicine they needed in the first 3 days after surgery.
