Liposomal Bupivacaine Use in Alveolar Bone Graft Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a pain medication called liposomal bupivacaine (brand name EXPAREL®) with epinephrine will provide better pain control, increased activity, and reduced use of opioids compared with the standard treatment for patients age 6 years and older with cleft lip and palate who have had an alveolar bone graft surgery. Investigators will look at: * pain scores at hip and jaw sites * opioid use in amount and frequency * scores on activity questionnaires Researchers will compare the results of these items with those of patients who had the standard treatment of bupivacaine with epinephrine.
• Patients that are 6 and older who have a diagnosis of cleft lip and/or palate with a scheduled surgery that involves an alveolar bone graft.
