Summary
The purpose of the study is to compare pain control after robotic hysterectomy surgery using
either liposomal bupivacaine or Bupivacaine when injected during a transversus abdominis
plane (TAP) block. Robotic hysterectomy is when a patient is electively having robotic
assisted removal of one's uterus. Both medications liposomal bupivacaine and Bupivacaine are
standard of care in these types of surgeries.
