Conditions

There is no consensus about the most appropriate local anesthetic, and 1% mepicavain and 2% lidocaine uses can be postulated indistinctly. This project was born with the intention of highlighting the level of anesthesia achieved, the side effects and the safety profile of the use of 1% mepivacaine, 2% lidocaine or 1% lidocaine solution + 8.4% sodium bicarbonate (ratio 10 :1 ml) to achieve local anesthesia in basic pleural intervention.

Need for advanced pleural interventional procedures (pleural biopsy, tunneled pleural drainage, thoracoscopy, etc.)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To analyze the efficacy of local anesthesia achieved prior to performing diagnostic and therapeutic pleural techniques, comparing the use of 1% lidocaine (undiluted), 2% mepivacaine (undiluted) and 1% lidocaine solution + sodium bicarbonate 8 .4% (ratio 10:1 ml), as well as secondary effects directly derived from the administration of said drugs and the total dose administered to achieve correct anesthesia.;Secondary Objective: a. To know the drug with the highest safety profile for use in pleural techniques. b. To know the minimum dose necessary for adequate anesthesia prior to performing pleural techniques. c. Degree of patient satisfaction in relation to the analgesia achieved after carrying out the diagnostic or therapeutic technique.;Primary end point(s): • • Anthropometric data (sex, age, weight and height) • • Type of procedure performed (diagnostic/ therapeutic thoracocentesis) • • Type of gauge used (Fr) • • Volume of pleural liquid extracted (expressed in ml) • • Biochemical characteristics of the extracted pleural fluid • • Vital signs before and after the procedure (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate and saturation measured by pulse oximetry) • • amount of anesthetic drug used for proper anesthesia (expressed in ml) • • Immediate complications.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: • • Anthropometric data (sex, age, weight and height) • • Type of procedure performed (diagnostic/ therapeutic thoracocentesis) • • Type of gauge used (Fr) • • Volume of pleural liquid extracted (expressed in ml) • • Biochemical characteristics of the extracted pleural fluid • • Vital signs before and after the procedure (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate and saturation measured by pulse oximetry) • • amount of anesthetic drug used for proper anesthesia (expressed in ml) • • Immediate complications. Data will be colleted during three consecutive months, and after this the data analyse will be carry

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • • Anatomical location of the pleural effusion • • amount (ultrasound measurement expressed in mm of the distance between the parietal pleura and the visceral pleura immediately prior to the procedure);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: • • Immediate complications. Data will be colleted during three consecutive months, and after this the data analyse will be carry on
