Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the quality and duration of pain relief after a total
knee replacement provided by a single shot of standard bupivacaine versus a single shot of
liposomal bupivacaine, at the site of the femoral nerve. It is hypothesized that the
liposomal bupivacaine formulation will provide more effective pain relief than standard
bupivacaine.
