Condition(s) targeted: Pain

Intervention: lidocaine hydrochloride (Drug)

Phase: N/A

Status: Withdrawn

Summary

This study will evaluate the potential to decrease the use of IV anesthesia drugs in patients undergoing pleuroscopy administering lidocane standardly applied to the skin in combination with atomized lidocaine applied into the pleural cavity.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Pilot Study About Safety and Efficacy of Atomized Intrapleural Lidocaine During Pleuroscopy

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Supportive Care

Primary outcome: Improve pain management in patients undergoing pleuroscopy

Secondary outcome: Reduction of procedure time Measurement of lidocaine serum levels at 30, 60, 120

Detailed description: Most patient discomfort results from direct manipulation or contact with the parietal pleura during chest tube placement, talc instillation or pleural biopsy. This study intends to use combined IV, intradermal and intrapleural anesthesia during pleuroscopy procedures. Intrapleural atomized lidocaine will be applied directly to the parital pleura. This study will evaluate intravenous anesthesia reduction in subjects treated with intrapleural lidocaine, reduction in total procedure timeby minimizing interruptions due to poor pain control, reduce perioperative pain scores and improve patient comfort nad to determine safety of fixed dosage of 3 mg/kg intrapleural lidocaine given during pleuroscopy.
