Lidocaine Infusions for Children Undergoing Combined Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy: A Double-Blinded, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial
Lidocaine is widely available and is a very commonly used local anesthetic. When administered intravenously, lidocaine infusions have anti-inflammatory effects and have significantly decreased the reliance on opioid use for adequate pain management in adult abdominal and spine surgeries. A major advantage of lidocaine infusion is that it is not associated with a significant side effect profile.The role of lidocaine in pediatric acute perioperative pain remains limited.
The aim of the study is to determine if using lidocaine continuously during anesthesia care will decrease post-operative pain for children having their tonsils and adenoids removed.
