Brief Summary:
Aims: The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness of topical lidocaine in relieving pain related to INM administration.
Design: This was a blinded, randomized placebo-controlled trial. Sixty-three uncooperative children, aged 4 - 11.
Detailed Description:
Background and Aims: The use of intranasal midazolam (INM) has been commonly associated with a burning sensation of the nasal mucosa. However, despite its significance, this subject has received little adequate research focus. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness of topical lidocaine in relieving pain related to INM administration.
Design: This was a blinded, randomized placebo-controlled trial. Sixty-three uncooperative children, aged 4 - 11, were randomly assigned to one of three groups to receive the drug nasally via a pre-calibrated spray as per the following assignments:
A: received 0.5 mg/kg midazolam, B: received lidocaine 2% prior to 0.5 mg/kg midazolam.
C: received saline 9% (placebo), 0.5mg/kg. Children were asked to record the degree of pain using Wong-Baker-Faces- (WBFS) Scale.
