Brief Summary

Peripheral  venous  cannulation is an everyday practice in the hospital and is painful. Inadequate pain relief is not only unpleasant for the patients but may cause anxiety about further treatment in the hospital. A study is planned to compare  the efficacy in reducing pain scores for paediatric iv cannulation  using lidocaine spray and Buzzy device. Under group A (CM) : patient will be cannulated in the conventional method where the site of cannulation will be wiped off with a swab of 70% alcohol. Under group B(LID) , 0.2ml of the 10% lidocaine spray will be sprayed over the site of venipuncture from a distance of 5 cm and 5 min before  the procedure.

Under group C(BUZZY®) patients will be cannulated with BUZZY® placed  2 min prior to procedure and 2 cm proximal to site of cannulation.The patient will be asked to rate the pain by pointing towards NRS- Numeric rating scale  for pain. Any side effects, procedural anxiety and ease of IV cannulation would be observed.
