Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The outcome of the study will help to establish iontophoresis technique as a means of providing dermal anesthesia, which will be non-invasive, cost-effective and will have shorter onset time period of drug delivery as compared to the EMLA cream.Timepoint: The onset time taken by EMLA cream to provide therapeutic anesthesia is approximately 45-60 minutes. So, there is a strong need to reduce this onset time. Hence in the present work, by using iontophoresis technique, lignocaine will be delivered in shorter time (5-10minutes) thereby reducing the onset time and cost.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Comparison of Pain level during cannulationTimepoint: Two Times with iontophoresis or EMLA & without iontophoresis device or EMLA
