About this study

Official title: Loco Regional Anesthesia for Dental Treatment in Cardiac Patients: Comparative Study Between Plain Lidocaine 2% and Lidocaine 2% With Epinephrine 1:100.000

Prospective, randomized double-blinded study to investigate hemodynamic changes in valvular cardiac patients during dental treatment with the use of a local anesthesia containing epinephrine.

Read the detailed description

Patients with valvular disease constitute a group in which local anesthesia must be effective to avoid higher release of endogenous catecholamines that could trigger hemodynamic. The study was conducted in the Dental Department of the Instituto do Coração do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo (Brazil). Patients were allocated into two groups through an aleatory numbered table: PL (plain 2% lidocaine, n= 31) and LE (2% lidocaine with 1:100.000 epinephrine, n= 28). The anesthetic amount was registered. DIXTAL monitor (São Paulo- Brazil) captured blood pressure, heart rate, oxygenation and electrocardiogram records.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Arrhythmias and Anxiety, run by University of Sao Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

arrhythmias (time frame: during procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 May 2008.
