简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of a buffered 4% lidocaine solution for incision and drainage. Ninety patients will be examined clinically to determine a diagnosis of cellulitis or fluctuance. The diagnosis will be confirmed by incision and drainage. Patients will receive either 3.6 ml 4% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine or 3.6 ml 4% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine buffered with 8.4% sodium bicarbonate. Patients will rate pain prior to and throughout the procedure.
详细描述
Incision and drainage of swellings is painful and anesthetic failure is common. One reason may be related to the lowered pH of inflamed tissue reducing the amount of the base form of anesthetic. A buffered anesthetic solution may result in more effective anesthesia than a non-buffered solution.

结局指标
主要结局
Pain Measurement as Assessed on a Heft-Parker 170 mm Visual Analog Scale
时间窗: during incision/drainage on Day 0
Patients will rate pain on a Heft-Parker visual analog scale during needle insertion, placement, and solution deposition phases of the anesthetic injection(s). Patients will also rate pain during the incision and dissection phases of the incision and drainage procedure. The number of millimeters along the scale are reported. No pain corresponded to 0 mm. Mild pain was defined as greater than 0 mm and less than or equal to 54 mm. Mild pain included the descriptors of "faint", "weak", and "mild pain". Moderate pain was defined as greater than 54 mm and less than 114 mm and included the descriptor "moderate". Severe pain was defined as equal to or greater than 114 mm up to and including 170 mm. Severe pain included the descriptors of "strong", "intense", and "maximum possible."
次要结局
- Postoperative Satisfaction on a 100 mm Visual Analog Scale(immediately post-procedure on Day 0)
