Popis: | Summary In a double-blind, placebo-controlled investigation, we studied the effects of pre-operative inferior alveolar nerve blockade and local anaesthetic intra-oral infiltration upon postoperative pain following third molar teeth extraction under general anaesthesia. Thirty six patients (12 male), mean (range) age 25.7 (18–40) years received an injection of 2% lignocaine 2 ml with 1:200 000 adrenaline around the inferior alveolar nerve and tissues adjacent to the third molar tooth on one side and of normal saline 2 ml in a similar fashion to the other side. We measured the pain on each side of the mandible on the 1st, 4th and 11th days after surgery using a visual analogue scale. The visual analogue pain score on the lignocaine and saline sides were 25/100 and 26/100 on day 1, 23/100 and 22/100 on day 4 and 0/100 and 1/100 on day 11. This study has a power of 80% to detect differences at the 5% level of significance of 11/100 on days 1 and 4 and 7/100 on day 11. We found no significant difference in the visual analogue scores between the lignocaine side and the saline side at any stage after the procedure. |
