Application of Lidocaine Aerosol in the circumcision of children

Abstract

Objective To investigate and analyze the effect of Lidocaine Aerosol used in pediatric circumcision.Methods One hundred and twenty cases undergoing selective operation were selected and randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 60 cases in each group.7％ Lidocaine Aerosol local spray and 1％ lidocaine local anesthesia were applied in the experimental group,and 1％ lidocaine local anesthesia only in the control group.And to observe and compare the following contents in the two groups:the fastest heart rate (HR),the lowest oxygen saturation (SpO2),Modified Objective Pain Score (MOPS),visual analogue scale (VAS) and the situation of whether using general anesthesia instead.Results In the experimental group,the fastest HR was (99 ±6.3) beats/min,the lowest SpO2 was (98.4 ± 1.31)％,MOPS score was (2.3 ± 0.39),VAS score was (14.5 ± 4.20),and the control group were of (104 ± 7.7) beats/min,(97.2 ± 1.85) ％,(3.7 ± 0.57),(29.0 ± 5.22),respectively,and these differences were statistically significant between the two groups (t =-6.69,5.58,-4.29,-4.68,respectively; P ＜ 0.05).There were two cases who were given general anesthesia in the experimental group,and eight cases in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Conclusions The combination of 7％ Lidocaine Aerosol and 1％ lidocaine local anesthesia in the circumcision of children can relieve their pain and stress reaction,which is easily accepted by children patients and their families.
