tetracaine and Abscess

tetracaine has been researched along with Abscess in 1 studies

Tetracaine: A potent local anesthetic of the ester type used for surface and spinal anesthesia.
tetracaine : A benzoate ester in which 4-N-butylbenzoic acid and 2-(dimethylamino)ethanol have combined to form the ester bond; a local ester anaesthetic (ester caine) used for surface and spinal anaesthesia.

Abscess: Accumulation of purulent material in tissues, organs, or circumscribed spaces, usually associated with signs of infection.

Trial Outcomes

NRS Pain Score After Blunt Dissection

Patient reported NRS pain scores after Blunt Dissection. The NRS for pain is a reliable and validated measure of pain intensity ranging from 0 - no pain, to 10 - worst pain imaginable. (NCT03872700)
Timeframe: Measured once anytime up to 60 minutes following intranasal administration

Interventionscore on a scale (Mean)
Intranasal Fentanyl4.1
Placebo4.4

NRS Pain Score After Irrigation

Patient reported NRS pain scores after Irrigation. The NRS for pain is a reliable and validated measure of pain intensity ranging from 0 - no pain, to 10 - worst pain imaginable. (NCT03872700)
Timeframe: Measured once anytime up to 60 minutes following intranasal administration

Interventionscore on a scale (Mean)
Intranasal Fentanyl3.4
Placebo2.6

NRS Pain Score After Lidocaine Injection

Patient reported NRS pain scores after Lidocaine injection. The NRS for pain is a reliable and validated measure of pain intensity ranging from 0 - no pain, to 10 - worst pain imaginable. (NCT03872700)
Timeframe: Following Lidocaine injection measured once anytime up to 12 minutes after intranasal administration

Interventionscore on a scale (Mean)
Intranasal Fentanyl8.4
