About this study

Official title: Tumescent Anesthesia Interest in Pain Management During a Dynamic Phototherapy (PTD) Session in Vertex Actinic Keratosis Treatment: a Single-center Prospective Randomized Study

This study focus on the efficacity of tumescent anesthesia in pain management during a photodynamic therapy on the vertex for treatment of actinic keratosis. To do this we carried out a prospective, randomized, controlled, open-ended study. Our aim is to show a 40% reduction in pain during photodynamic therapy session compared to a conventionally used analgesic method (paracetamol + cold water)

Being tested
Procedure (Tumesent anesthesia), Control Arm (Paracetamol)
Medical subject headings
Pain, Keratosis, Actinic, Agnosia

What participants receive

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

  • Procedure (Tumesent anesthesia)Drug

    Photodynamic therapy of vertex with a solution of 180 ml of tumescent anesthesia diffused over 1 hour in three different sub-deceasing points.

  • Control Arm (Paracetamol)Drug

    Photodynamic therapy of vertex with 1g of paracetamol intake 1 hour before cold water is applied during the session.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain Intensity Measure : evaluate the effectiveness of tumescent anesthesia compared to the control group in pain management during a dynamic vertex phototherapy session performed for the management of actinic keratoses.

    Score of the maximum numerical pain assessment scale from 0 to 10 (0=no pain; 10= pain as bas as can be) felt during the dynamic phototherapy session in both groups.

    This score will be collected at the end of the session.

    Measured: 8 minutes
