Comparation of the eutectic mixture of lidocaine/prilocain versus benzocaine gel in children
2011
Objective: To compare the anesthetic effect of a non commercial eutectic mixture of 4% lidocaine/ prilocaine (PLO 4%) and 20% benzocaine gel (Hur- ricaine®), as topical anesthetic, prior to inferior al- veolar nerve block and buccal infiltration anesthesia in 5 - 12 year old children. Study design: Infiltrative anesthesia was applied in 50 children, divided in two groups (n = 25) using PLO 4% and Hurricaine® as topical anesthesia prior to infiltration. Physical reac- tions were registered using the Sound-Eyes- Motor Scale. Physiological changes expressed by ar- terial pressure and heart rate. Subjective pain re- sponse was scored on a Facial Image Scale. Physical physiological and subjectiv…
A prospective randomized clinical trial compared the effect of various types of local anesthetics cartridges on hypertensive patients during dental e…
2015
Objectives: To evaluate hemodynamic changes of blood pressure and heart rate on hypertensive patients undergoing tooth extraction using various types of local anesthesia (LA). Study Design: A prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted on 45 hypertensive patients who were divided equally into 3 parallel groups according to LA received. Group 1: Lidociane 2% with epinephrine 1: 80,000. Group 2: Prilocaine 3% with Felypressin 0.03 IU/ml. Group 3: Mepivacaine 3% plain. Inclusion criteria: hypertensive patients, under medical management with blood pressure ≤ 159/99. Exclusion criteria: Blood pressure ≥160 /100 and patients receiving β blockers. Negative aspiration was mandatory before t…
Anesthetic efficacy of Oraqix versus Hurricaine and placebo for pain control during non-surgical periodontal treatment
2014
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of Oraqix® during scaling and root planing (SRP) in comparison with 20% benzocaine and placebo. Study Design: 15 patients requiring 4 sessions of SRP were enrolled. For each patient, Oraqix®, Hurricaine®, vaseline or no anesthetic product were randomly assigned each to a quadrant. Treatment pain was evaluated on a 100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and on a Verbal Rating Scale (VRS). The amount of product administered, the need to re-anesthetise, patient and operator satisfaction and the onset of side-effects were also recorded. Results: Oraqix® was significantly better than nothing, with a reduction of VAS score to 13.3 units, but without significant diff…
Fast-Track Surgery and Early Rehabilitation for Total Hip Replacement in Hospital of Traumatology and Orthopaedics
2019
Abstract Due to an ageing population, the necessity for hip replacement has grown, and therefore, new options are being sought, such as the Fast-track principle, to improve patient condition, reduce their hospital stay and enhance the hospital’s ability to treat more patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of same-day patient mobilisation on pain, side effects, complications, duration of hospital stay, and recovery after primary hip replacement, using intermediate-acting local anaesthetics in spinal anaesthesia (SA). A prospective, randomised study was conducted at the Hospital of Traumatology and Orthopaedics. Forty-six patients undergoing total hip replacement were …
Use of Anesthetics Associated to Vasoconstrictors for Dentistry in Patients With Cardiopathies. Review of the Literature Published in the Last Decade
2012
Objective: The use of local anesthetics associated to vasoconstrictor agents in dentistry is thoroughly justified and is widely extended, but we cannot ignore the fact that anesthetic infiltration poses risk of complications throughout the dental treatment period. The objective of the present review is to document the reported effects the use of the local anesthetics most widely employed in dentistry, with or without association to vasoconstrictor agents may have in patients with any sort of cardiopathy. Study Design: We have searched for randomized clinical trials on the assessment of the cardiovascular effects of local anesthetics used in dentistry, without limits as regards age or sex, c…
A comparison of injection pain with articaine with adrenaline, prilocaine with phenylpressin and lidocaine with adrenaline
2008
Kutuk, Nukhet/0000-0001-6563-1899 WOS: 000259667200006 PubMed: 18587306 Objective: The objective of the present study was to investigate the pain on injection of articaine with adrenaline, prilocaine with phenylpressin, and lidocaine with adrenaline. Study Design: The study sample was comprised of 497 consecutively seen patients received 497 maxillary buccal infiltration injections or inferior alveolar block injections of 4% articaine with 1: 200.000 adrenaline, 3% prilocaine with 1.08mcg phenylpressin, or 2% lidocaine with 1: 100.000 adrenaline. Immediately after the injection, patients were asked to rate their injection pain on a six-point scale. Results: There were no significant differe…
