Analgesic Effect of Levobupivacaine in Breast Augmentation

Analgesic Efficacy of Levobupivacaine Administration in Periprosthetic Breast Augmentation With Implants

The purpose of this study is to determine whether levobupivacaine is effective in the acute postoperative pain treatment in periprosthetic breast augmentation

One of the most common plastic surgery is breast augmentation using prosthesis ( mammoplasty Surgery with cohesive silicone gel prosthesis insubpectoral plane). Remains challenging management of acute postoperative pain that allows for early discharge of patients. To this end the following objectives are proposed: evaluate the analgesic efficacy of L-Bupivacaine 0.25% vs. Placebo (saline) administered irrigation into the surgical pocket bilaterally intraoperatively.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Women> 18 and <= 65 years
• Mammoplasty Surgery with cohesive silicone gel prosthesis in subpectoral plane
• ASA I and II
• Informed consent signed

Exclusion Criteria:

• Rejection of the patient
• ASA III or higher
• Other conditions that warrant their inclusion as medically indicated (eg psychiatric illness).
• Allergy to NSAIDs, local anesthetics and / or morphine
