Postoperative pain control is an essential aspect of patient recovery and satisfaction. While pain management is important in all surgical settings, C-sections, hysterectomies, and myomectomies are particularly frequent, accentuating the need for reliable non-opioid alternatives in OBGYN. Dr. Steven McCarus and Dr. Paula Bilica discuss the efficacy of multimodal pain control options in gynecologic and obstetric surgeries, including Exparel, a non-opioid liposomal bupivacaine.The doctors highlight the opioid epidemic and the need for alternative pain relief methods. They share insights on how the introduction of Exparel has transformed their practices by reducing the reliance on opioids, enhancing patient recovery post-surgery, and improving overall patient outcomes. Specific techniques and procedures for using Exparel in various types of surgeries such as C-sections, hysterectomies, and myomectomies are detailed, along with the benefits observed in clinical practices.TIMESTAMPSCHECK OUT THE FULL EPISODEOBGYN Ep. 67: https://www.backtable.com/shows/obgyn/podcasts/67/non-opiod-pain-management-in-gyn-surgery
