Clinical Trials
Local Anesthesia in Radial Catheterization
A randomized clinical trial to test the efficacy of EMLA cream (lidocaine 2.5% and prilocaine 2.5% in a ratio of 1:1 by weight) in comparison to the established local anesthesia (LA) proto...
This project is a national, open label, multicenter, randomized split-mouth study in patients from 18 to 70 years of age to compare the efficacy and acceptability of lidocaine gel compared...
Tumescent Lidocaine Maximum Safe mg/kg Dosage
This pharmacokinetic clinical trial is a dose ranging study of lidocaine in tumescent local anesthesia. The goal is to understand the absorption pharmacokinetic of tumescent lidocaine and ...
The purpose of the study will be to demonstrate whether Mohs micrographic surgery can be performed with a lower total dose of local anesthesia (and greater patient safety) when using 0.5% ...
Optimal Lidocaine Buffering to Reduce Injection Pain in Local Anesthesia
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal amount of lidocaine buffering needed to decrease injection pain when administering local anesthesia.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Prilocaine
A local anesthetic that is similar pharmacologically to LIDOCAINE. Currently, it is used most often for infiltration anesthesia in dentistry. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1992, p165)
Mepivacaine
A local anesthetic that is chemically related to BUPIVACAINE but pharmacologically related to LIDOCAINE. It is indicated for infiltration, nerve block, and epidural anesthesia. Mepivacaine is effective topically only in large doses and therefore should not be used by this route. (From AMA Drug Evaluations, 1994, p168)
Dibucaine
A local anesthetic of the amide type now generally used for surface anesthesia. It is one of the most potent and toxic of the long-acting local anesthetics and its parenteral use is restricted to spinal anesthesia. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1006)
Electroacupuncture
A form of acupuncture with electrical impulses passing through the needles to stimulate NERVE TISSUE. It can be used for ANALGESIA; ANESTHESIA; REHABILITATION; and treatment for diseases.
Parkinson Disease Associated Proteins
Proteins associated with sporadic or familial cases of PARKINSON DISEASE.
