Summary
This is a randomized prospective study that will compare the use of narcotics in a control
group of non-injected patients with a treatment arm of patients injected intra-operatively
with a ropivacaine, morphine, and epinephrine cocktail. The investigators hypothesize that
this treatment will reduce narcotic use in patients during their hospital stay, and possibly
decrease the length of their stay in the hospital.The investigators also hope their pain will
be decreased as displayed by their multi-daily Clinically Aligned Pain Assessment (CAPA)
score.
