Summary
Brief summary
This is a research study testing SABER-Bupivacaine (an experimental pain-relieving
medication). SABER-Bupivacaine is designed to continuously deliver bupivacaine, a common
local anesthetic, for a few days in order to treat local post-surgical pain.

The purpose of this study is to investigate safety (if there are any side effects) associated
with the use of SABER-Bupivacaine and how well it works in reducing pain and opioid-related
side effects following shoulder surgery.
