Study Summary

This is proof of concept, phase I randomized controlled trial studying a short acting non-opioid anesthetic, bupivacaine to improve post-operative pain in gynecologic surgery patients. Patients who are undergoing minimally invasive (laparoscopic or robotic) hysterectomy will be randomized to receive no uterosacral injection, normal saline uterosacral injection, or 0.25% bupivacaine uterosacral injection just prior to colpotomy (incision around the cervix and removal of uterus) during minimally invasive hysterectomy.

Primary Outcome

Total morphine equivalents of opioids in the first 7 days after surgery will be assessed to look for a statistically significant difference

Interventions
