Download or read book Local Anesthesia Before Intravenous Cannula Insertion written by Vera Campbell-Jones and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Administering local anesthetics, such as intradermal, should become standard practice for RNs in pretreatments for pain control prior to intravenous insertion. Peripheral venous cannulation has provoked the most fear and anxiety in adult patients about everyday practice in hospitals. Adult patients often state that this procedure causes considerable discomfort. Local anesthesia for cannulation is usually not offered to adult patients who are on general medical units. Evidence has indicated inconsistency in the use of pain management strategies during these procedures. The researcher’s goal in this project was to educate RNs about the intradermal pretreatment procedure, provide education on the hospital’s current IV therapy pretreatment policy, increase the usage of intradermal local anesthesia for cannulation for patients’ comfort level, and utilize low-fidelity simulation for adult learners. Many studies have shown simulation can be an influential tool in helping adult learners; for example, RNs can envision concepts and apply knowledge in a safe, nonthreatening environment. The conceptual framework the researcher chose for this simulation, point of interest capstone project was Knowles’s adult learning theory, which describes methods to help adult learners visualize the connectedness of concepts and applications of knowledge to actual life situations.

Download or read book Comparison of Iontophoretic Lidocaine to EMLA Cream for Pain Reduction Prior to Intravenous Fannulation in Adults written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The insertion of intravenous (IV) catheters, required for most operative anesthesia, can be a source of pain and anxiety. Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, is frequently injected intradermally to decrease pain associated with IV cannulation in adults. Topically administered EMLA (Eutectic Mixture of Local Anesthetics) cream is frequently used, but it takes one hour for it to effectively anesthetize venipuncture sites, which limits its usefulness. A method gaining acceptance in healthcare is the iontophoresis (transdermal administration of ionizable drugs utilizing an electric current) of a polarized local anesthetic. Using iontophoresis, a local anesthetic such as lidocaine, a positively charged molecule, can be used to effectively anesthetize the skin to depths of up to 8mm without the use of needles, in as few as ten minutes. The purpose of this study was to compare the iontophoresis of lidocaine with epinephrine to EMLA cream for producing local anesthesia prior to intravenous cannulation. A descriptive study utilizing the experimental method with a cross over design was used. The procedures for the study consisted of the random application of EMLA cream (for 60 minutes) or the iontophoresis of 4% lidocaine HCl (40 mg/ml) with 1:50,000 epinephrine (20 mcg/ml) (40 milliamp minutes) to either the dorsal surface of the right or left hand. Results were that the iontophoresis of 4% Lidocaine HCl with Epinephrine 1:50,000 (20 micrograms/millimeter (mcg/ml) reduced pain more effectively than EMLA cream associated with intravenous cannulation in adults (14 mm vs. 3 mm for the EMLA cream and Iontophoresis respectively). The majority of subjects preferred iontophoresis.
