Background
Neutralizing (buffering) lidocaine 1%/epinephrine 1:100,000 solution (Lido/Epi) with sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3) (also called sodium bicarbonate) is widely used to reduce burning sensations during infiltration of Lido/Epi. Optimal mixing ratios have not been systematically investigated.
Objectives
To determine whether a Lido/Epi:NaHCO3 mixing ratio of 3:1 (investigational medicinal product 1) causes less pain during infiltration than a mixing ratio of 9:1 (IMP2) or unbuffered Lido/Epi (IMP3).
Methods
Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover trial (n = 2 × 24) with 4 investigational medicinal products (IMP1-4).
Results
The 3:1 mixing ratio was significantly less painful than the 9:1 ratio (P = .044). Unbuffered Lido/Epi was more painful than the buffered Lido/Epi (P = .001 vs IMP1; P = .033 vs IMP2). IMP4 (NaCl 0.9% [placebo]) was more painful than any of the anesthetic solutions (P = .001 vs IMP1; P = .001 vs IMP2; P = .016 vs IMP3). In all cases, the anesthesia was effective for at least 3 hours.
Limitations
Results of this trial cannot be generalized to other local anesthetics such as prilocaine, bupivacaine, or ropivacaine, which precipitate with NaHCO3 admixtures.
Conclusions
Lido/Epi-NaHCO3 mixtures effectively reduce burning pain during infiltration. The 3:1 mixing ratio is significantly less painful than the 9:1 ratio. Reported findings are of high practical relevance, given the extensive use of local anesthesia today.

缓冲利多卡因 1%/肾上腺素 1:100,000 与碳酸氢钠(碳酸氢钠)以 3:1 的比例比 9:1 的比例更痛:一项双盲、随机、安慰剂对照、交叉试验。
背景
中和(缓冲)利多卡因 1%/肾上腺素 1:100,000 溶液(Lido/Epi)与碳酸氢钠 (NaHCO 3 )(也称为碳酸氢钠)被广泛用于减少 Lido/Epi 浸润过程中的烧灼感。尚未系统地研究最佳混合比。
目标
确定3:1的 Lido/Epi:NaHCO 3混合比(研究性药物产品 1)是否比混合比 9:1 (IMP2) 或无缓冲的 Lido/Epi (IMP3) 引起的浸润疼痛更小。
方法
双盲、随机、安慰剂对照、交叉试验(n = 2 × 24),涉及 4 种研究药物(IMP1-4)。
结果
3:1 混合比例比 9:1 比例显着 减轻疼痛 ( P = .044)。无缓冲的 Lido/Epi 比缓冲的 Lido/Epi 更痛(P = .001 vs IMP1;P = .033 vs IMP2)。IMP4(NaCl 0.9% [安慰剂])比任何麻醉剂溶液都更痛(P = .001 vs IMP1;P = .001 vs IMP2;P = .016 vs IMP3 )。在所有情况下,麻醉至少有效 3 小时。
限制
该试验的结果不能推广到其他局麻药,如丙胺卡因、布比卡因或罗哌卡因,它们与 NaHCO 3混合物一起沉淀。
结论
Lido/Epi-NaHCO 3混合物可有效减轻浸润过程中的灼痛。3:1 的混合比例比 9:1 的比例显着减轻痛苦。鉴于当今广泛使用局部麻醉,报告的发现具有很高的实际相关性。
