To cover large surgical sites, 17 00:01:32.540 --> 00:01:37.390 EXPAREL may be expanded with normal saline or lactated ringer solution. 18 00:01:38.230 --> 00:01:43.230 Maintain a minimum concentration of 0.89 milligrams per milliliter. 19 00:01:44.340 --> 00:01:48.110 EXPAREL is a suspension, and unlike traditional bupivocaine, 20 00:01:48.210 --> 00:01:49.950 it does not readily diffuse. 21 00:01:51.130 --> 00:01:55.430 The number of multivesicular liposomes present in a surgical site 22 00:01:55.780 --> 00:02:00.550 impacts the local bupivacaine concentration and therefore the efficacy 23 00:02:00.890 --> 00:02:05.870 and duration. Ensure enough multivesicular liposomes 24 00:02:05.930 --> 00:02:10.910 are available at the pain receptors to continuously release bupivacaine for long 25 00:02:11.100 --> 00:02:15.590 lasting analgesia. To determine the right volume, 26 00:02:16.390 --> 00:02:21.070 consider the size vascularity and neuroanatomy of the surgical site. 27 00:02:22.700 --> 00:02:25.430 EXPAREL achieves targeted analgesia. 28 00:02:26.770 --> 00:02:31.230 The multivesicular liposomes in EXPAREL stay precisely where placed, 29 00:02:31.740 --> 00:02:34.790 therefore, EXPAREL requires more injections. 30 00:02:35.090 --> 00:02:37.670 To ensure adequate pain receptor coverage, 31 00:02:39.330 --> 00:02:43.830 use a 25 gauge or larger bore needle to maintain the structural 32 00:02:43.830 --> 00:02:47.590 integrity of the liposomes. Infiltrate 33 00:02:47.600 --> 00:02:52.230 using a frequent and consistent injection technique to distribute 34 00:02:52.460 --> 00:02:57.310 EXPAREL throughout the surgical site. Inject frequently in small areas, 35 00:02:57.890 --> 00:03:00.220 one to one and a half centimeters apart. 36 00:03:01.630 --> 00:03:05.260 Using a moving needle technique, slowly and deeply, 37 00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:09.980 inject one to two milliliters of EXPAREL into soft tissues. 38 00:03:10.510 --> 00:03:15.060 Infiltrate above and below the fascia and into the subcutaneous tissue. 39 00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:21.060 To ensure complete analgesic coverage, aspirate frequently to 40 00:03:21.300 --> 00:03:23.740 minimize risk of intravascular injection. 41 00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:30.140 The volume administered and the administration technique are critical to 42 00:03:30.140 --> 00:03:31.620 achieving optimal results. 43 00:03:33.490 --> 00:03:38.300 EXPAREL provides long lasting post-surgical pain control while reducing 44 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:40.860 or eliminating the need for opioids.
