About this study

Official title: Effect of Lidocaine and Adrenaline Soaked Gauze Versus Normal Saline Soaked at Skin Graft Donor Site of Thigh: A Randomized Control Trial

Investigator is studying the effects of Lidocaine and Adrenaline Soaked Gauze vs Normal Saline Soaked Gauze at Skin Graft Donor Site of Thigh.

Haemostatic effect, epithelization and post operative pain will be assessed on follow up.

Read the detailed description

After admission participants will be randomized either to be in Group A or Group B. Closed envelop technique will be used for random assignment of the patients.

Group A will be receiving 2% lidocaine and 1:100,000 adrenaline soaked gauze while group B will be given only normal saline soaked gauze at donor-site for ten minutes.

The primary end point of study is intraoperative bleeding. The secondary end points of study include no. of dressings required in first 24 hours after surgery, donor site epithelization at 14th post-operative day, post-operative pain in first 24 hours after surgery along with systemic analgesia requirement after surgery.

Being tested
2% Lidocaine and 1:100,000 Adrenaline, Normal saline

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 2% Lidocaine and 1:100,000 AdrenalineDrug

    Topical application of 2% Lidocaine and 1:100,000 Adrenaline in the form of dressing will be applied over skin graft donor site of thigh for 10 minutes.

  • Normal salineDrug

    Topical application of Normal saline will be applied over skin graft donor site of thigh as a control group.

Group A ( Lidocaine + Adrenaline)Active comparatorGroup A patients will receive 2% Lidocaine and 1:100,000 adrenaline soaked gauze over skin graft donor site of thigh per operatively for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes this dressing will be removed and sufratul dressing will be applied over donor site.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intra operatieve bleeding

    Intra-operative Bleeding from donor site of graft will be assessed per operatively as being normal or more than normal.

    Measured: per operative

  2. Post operative bleeding

    post operative bleeding will be assesd in post operative period by number of dressings required.

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. Post operative pain

    post operative pain will be assessed in the post operative period by visual analog score. Score ranges from 0 to 10 with 0 indicating no pain whereas 10 is worst pain.

    Measured: 24 hours

  4. Analgesia requirement

    Post operative analgesia requirement of patient will be observed by number of medications required

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Epithelization of donor site

    Epithelization over donor site will be assessed on 14th post operative day by subjective assesment

    Measured: 14 days
