Brief Summary:
Intravenous contrast media is commonly used for CT scans for improved image clarity in pediatric emergency medicine Children who feel discomfort during the administration of IV contrast media may not remain still during the CT scan which affects the overall study quality and reliability Therefore many young patients often undergo procedural sedation in anticipation of movement artifact degrading the diagnostic accuracy Procedural sedation while a common procedure in the pediatric emergency department does have significant complications and it increases the risk of adverse events for the patient The risk of airway compromise associated with procedural sedation is particularly concerning in children requiring IV contrast for imaging of an upper airway pathology such as retropharyngeal abscess as the disease itself narrows the airway This presents the physician with a dilemma of assessing the extent of the disease without the additional risk of airway compromise by using procedural sedationPrevious research has looked at premedication with steroids prior to IV-contrast media administration to avert an allergic response However there has been no investigation of premedication to abate the immediate adverse effects of discomfort associated with IV contrast injection The safety of IV lidocaine in pediatric patients has been documented in studies of its use for post-operative pain using doses from 10 to 15 mgkg with no known adverse side effects CT scans with IV contrast are performed on a near-daily basis in the Maimonides pediatric emergency department usually for the assessment of acute appendicitis The standard of care in children and adults receiving IV contrast does not include pre-medication to prevent IV contrast-associated discomfort This double-blinded prospective study aims to determine whether pre-treatment with lidocaine can mitigate the immediate discomfort of IV contrast in verbal children and adolescents who can comply with a pre and post IV contrast pain assessment
Detailed Description:
STUDY DESIGN Subjects Patients aged from 7 to 17 years-old who present to the Maimonides Medical Centers Emergency Department that require a CT scan with IV contrast Research team members will be notified when the patient requires CT scan with IV contrast and meets the eligibility criteria Potential subjects will be recruited in the Emergency Department
Eligibility Criteria Inclusion criteria Patients with age of 7 to 17 years-old who require a CT scan with IV contrast Exclusion criteria Patients with history of seizures cardiovascular disease presenting as a trauma a history of anaphylaxis to lidocaine or childrenadolescents with underlying neurodevelopmental conditions which would interfere with their ability to respond to pre and post IV contrast pain assessments
Design This is a prospective double-blinded randomized control study that will be comparing intravenous lidocaine to a placebo Patients will be randomized with block randomization The randomization list will be generated EM Research Manager and given to the EM pharmacist a priori of commencement of the study The EM Research Manager and EM Pharmacist are not blinded to the study Once a potential subject has been identified a member of the research team will obtain consent from the parent or guardian of the subject The research team member involved with consent and data collection provider and subject will all be blinded to which treatment arm they are assigned
The research team members will monitor each patient and in conjunction with the pharmacy will deliver the assigned treatment to the subjects nurse to administer 10 min prior to the CT scan If selected for the treatment group the patient will receive a 1mgkg IV dose of lidocaine with a max dose of 40mg15 A patient selected to the control group will an equal volume of normal saline infused A research team member will be present during the administration of assigned treatment until the completion of the CT scan The patient will be placed on a cardiopulmonary monitor for the duration of this period Advanced airway equipment IV midazolam and IV intralipids will also be available at bedside during infusion and until completion of CT scan to treat any potential adverse effect associated with lidocaine
Nominal variables to be collected include gender chief complaint pain score at triage use of pain medication at triage and during the ED course diagnosis type of CT scan performed pre and post-intervention pain score post-intervention pruritus score post-intervention burning pain score The only continuous variable being collected includes age in years-old
There will be no interruption or deviation from the standard of clinical care provided to each subject This study will be run completely in the Pediatric Emergency Department
Data Collection Procedures Once a subject has been enrolled the research team member will review the chart and collect all pertinent information as shown in the data collection template A questionnaire will be completed prior to administration of the medication as well as following the CT scan which will be administered by the research team member The investigators will use a combination of the Baker-Wong FACES pain scale and 1 to 10 numerical scale for pain as well as a 5-point Likert scale for discomfort Once all data has been collected it will be recorded in password protected document located on a secure server only accessible to members of the research team All information about the patients will be de-identified Study investigators will record pain scores vital signs and adverse effects at prior to intervention immediately following intervention and 15 min following the intervention
The preparing ED pharmacist research manager and statistician will be the only ones with knowledge of the study arm to which each participant would be randomized Treating providers participants and the data collecting research team will be blind to the medication route received
All data will be recorded on data collection sheets including patients gender demographics medical history and vital signs and entered into SPSS version 270 IBM Corp by the research manager Development of the randomization list confirmation of written consent acquisition for all participants and statistical analyses will be conducted by the research manager and statistician who will work independently of any data collection
Patients will be closely monitored for any change in vital sings and for adverse effects during the entire study period up to 120 minutes by study investigators
