简要总结
Local anesthesia used for incision and drainage of abscesses is known to be painful.
We studied the analgesia provided by a lidocaine/tetracaine patch compared to injectable lidocaine during incision and drainage (I&D) of skin abscesses.
Local injection of lidocaine provided similar analgesia compared to the lidocaine/tetracaine patch during I&D of skin abscesses in the Emergency Department. Pain at presentation and following the procedure was similar in both groups.

研究组 & 干预措施
Lidocaine Injection
Incision and drainage performed after patient received placebo patch with injection of 1% lidocaine into the site of the abscess.
干预措施: 1% lidocaine (Drug)
Lidocaine/tetracaine patch
Incision and drainage performed after patient received active lidocaine/tetracaine patch and injection of 10cc of saline into site of abscess
干预措施: Lidocaine/tetracaine patch (Drug)
