Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
12-hour Postoperative Pain Scores
To determine if lidocaine patch is superior to placebo as an adjunctive therapy for acute postoperative pain. Average pain score in women who have undergone cesarean delivery at 12 hours postoperatively. Measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a scale which measures pain from 0 to 100 with 0="no pain" and 100="the worst pain you have ever felt".
24-hour Postoperative Pain Scores
To determine if lidocaine patch is superior to placebo as an adjunctive therapy for acute postoperative pain. Average pain score in women who have undergone cesarean delivery at 24 hours postoperatively. Measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a scale which measures pain from 0 to 100 with 0="no pain" and 100="the worst pain you have ever felt".
36-hour Postoperative Pain Scores
To determine if lidocaine patch is superior to placebo as an adjunctive therapy for acute postoperative pain. Average pain score in women who have undergone cesarean delivery at 36 hours postoperatively. Measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a scale which measures pain from 0 to 100 with 0="no pain" and 100="the worst pain you have ever felt".
48-hour Postoperative Pain Scores
To determine if lidocaine patch is superior to placebo as an adjunctive therapy for acute postoperative pain. Average pain score in women who have undergone cesarean delivery at 48 hours postoperatively. Measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a scale which measures pain from 0 to 100 with 0="no pain" and 100="the worst pain you have ever felt".
Secondary Outcome Measures
5-days Postoperative Narcotic Use
To determine if narcotic use changes when patients use lidocaine patches by counting amount and frequency of narcotic use over admission. Average number of 5 mg oxycodone pills used in women who have undergone cesarean delivery assessed through questionnaire at 5 days postoperatively.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Randomized control trial evaluating use of lidocaine vs placebo patch for post-operative cesarean incision pain.
Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to determine if lidocaine patches decrease post-operative pain associated with cesarean births. While the Lidoderm lidocaine patch has been FDA approved for the treatment of skin pain, it has not been studied in women undergoing cesarean birth who experience postoperative pain. Even though this medication has been used in post-operative pain in published studies, the use of this medicine under these circumstances is still considered experimental. A lidocaine patch may provide added benefit for pain control in addition to standard medicines participants would receive after surgery, such as spinal, intravenous, and oral pain medications following cesarean delivery.
