We tested the hypothesis that inhibition of cutaneous sensory nerves would attenuate reflex cutaneous vasodilation in response to an increase in core temperature. Nine subjects were equipped with four microdialysis fibers on the forearm. Two sites were treated with topical

Topical capsaicin and eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA) have been found to be equally effective in minimizing the pain of venipuncture. After the injection of capsaicin, both tertiary amine local anesthetics and their quaternary ammonium derivatives can elicit a

Temporary deafferentation of the upper limb, with ischemic or anesthetic nerve block, has rapid effects on sensorimotor cortex. Cutaneous anesthesia of the forearm has recently been found to improve sensory and motor function of the paretic hand in chronic stroke

To determine whether prilocaine, a local anesthetic, induces apoptosis in osteoblastic cells. After reaching subconfluence, human osteoblastic Saos-2 and MG63 cells and mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells were exposed for 48 hr to varying concentrations of prilocaine up to 10 mM
Pediatric emergency care, 29(3), 377-379 (2013-03-07)
Topical anesthetics are commonly used in many health care settings and for many clinical conditions. However, there are a number of potential adverse effects associated with their use. Their widespread administration can convey a false sense of security and failure
