Postoperative pain relief was not improved with bupivacaine, indicating that different methods may need exploration.
Patients receiving bupivacaine reported similar pain levels as those receiving saline, showing no significant benefit.
The randomized trial involved 41 patients, with bupivacaine delivered every 4 hours for 48 hours through catheters.
No complications were observed, highlighting that while ineffective, bupivacaine was safe in this procedure.
