研究概览
简要总结
This is a research study to compare how long injectable pain medications (anesthetics) commonly used in dermatologic surgery are effective for. This study will compare a short-acting anesthetic, lidocaine with epinephrine, to one of two long-acting anesthetics (ropivacaine or bupivacaine). This study will also directly compare the duration of actions of ropivacaine and bupivacaine. The investigators hypothesize that the duration of anesthesia of short-acting anesthetics will not differ significantly from long-acting anesthetics at a single site and there will not be a significant difference between the two long-acting anesthetics at a single site.
详细描述
This study will compare the relative durations of local anesthetics within the same subject at a highly vascularized anatomic region of skin, the nasal ala. This study will test and compare the relative durations and efficacy of commonly used long acting (ropivacaine or bupivacaine) and short acting local anesthetics (lidocaine with epinephrine), delivered via local anesthesia. This study will use a modification of a previously published approach of non-invasive pinprick testing to assess the duration of local anesthetic.

盲法说明
0.5mL of local anesthetic will be injected into the skin of each participant by the one dermatologic surgeon (PI of the study, Dr. Kira Minkis, KM). Dr. Minkis will be unblinded to the laterality of the anesthetics and will not be involved in further assessments.

研究组 & 干预措施
Lidocaine + epinephrine vs Ropivacaine
Each site of the nasal ala will be tested for normal sensation using sterile 30-gauge needles. Other eligibility criteria will be confirmed. Participants in this arm will receive an injection of 0.5ml of . Xylocaine + epinephrine 1:100,000 (lidocaine + epinephrine 1:100,000), buffered 1/10 with sodium bicarb into one side of the nose (nasal ala) and 0.5ml of Naropin (ropivacaine) 0.5% into the opposite nasal ala. Laterality of each anesthetic administration will be randomly assigned for each patient. Subjects will be evaluated for duration of effect of anesthesia every 15 minutes on both sides of the face, until the patient reports return of a sharp sensation upon the pinprick test.
干预措施: Ropivacaine 0.5% Injectable Solution (Drug)
Lidocaine + epinephrine vs Bupivacaine
Each site of the nasal ala will be tested for normal sensation using sterile 30-gauge needles. Other eligibility criteria will be confirmed. Participants in this arm will receive an injection of 0.5ml of lidocaine + epinephrine into one side of the nose (nasal ala) and 0.5ml of Marcaine (bupivacaine) 0.5% into the opposite nasal ala. Laterality of each anesthetic administration will be randomly assigned for each patient. Subjects will be evaluated for duration of effect of anesthesia every 15 minutes on both sides of the face, until the patient reports return of a sharp sensation upon the pinprick test.
干预措施: Bupivacaine 0.5% Injectable Solution (Drug)

结局指标
主要结局
Time to Return to Baseline Sensation, as Determined by Binary Outcomes (Yes/no) in 15 Minute Increments
时间窗: Up to 4 hours.
To determine whether the time to return to baseline sensation differs significantly between each pair of anesthetics, the investigators will measure the time to return to baseline sensation at each anesthetized site by asking participants at 15 minute intervals if they can feel a sharp sensation at the site. Sterile needles will be used. The return of the sensitivity will be determined using binary outcomes (yes/no) and recorded on a standardized template. The maximum difference in anesthetic duration that the investigators consider "not different" from a clinical standpoint is 15 minutes.
