Surgical Pain Control With Ropivacaine by Atomized Delivery
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Intraperitoneal Ropivacaine (AIR) and Atomized Intraperitoneal Saline (AIS) for Pain. Completed, enrolled 56 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this trial is to determine the effect of spraying a local anesthetic called Ropivacaine (numbing medicine) into the abdominal cavity prior to surgery. Ropivacaine is a local anesthetic used to block pain in the body. There are studies showing that Ropivacaine decreases the pain of surgery with minimally invasive (laparoscopic) appendix and gallbladder removal but has not been tried in robotic pelvic surgery.

Timeline
Interventions
Ropivacaine 2 mg/kg per lean body mass up to no more than 200mg total dose will be atomized and delivered into the peritoneal cavity at the completion of surgery.
Atomized saline will be administered to the peritoneal cavity at the completion of surgery.
