In 130 surgical patients with diseases and injuries in the area of the perineum and lower extremities the clinical effects of three modern local anesthetics: 2% solution of lidocaine, 0.5% solution of bupivacaine, 0.75% solution of ropivacaine and their combinations (2% lidocaine and 0.25% bupivacaine solution 2% lidocaine and ropivacaine 0.375% solution) were followed with regard to the influence of increasing volumes of local anesthetics and different rates of drug administration. It is established that an effective caudal anesthesia is provided with all modern local anesthetics, with increasing use of local anesthetic solution to 40 ml provides duration and the prevalence of sensory and motor blocks, the use of mixture of local anesthetics optimizes the development and maintenance of the caudal blockade.

Aim: The objective of the present study is to assess and compare the effectiveness of two different anesthetic agents, namely, 4% articaine and 2% lignocaine, in the extraction of primary molar teeth in children.

Materials And Methods: The study included 25 children requiring bilateral extractions of primary molar, with extraction performed on one side with 4% articaine and the contralateral side extraction with 2% lignocaine at two separate appointments. The anesthetic efficacy was evaluated objectively by assessing pain and the child's behavior at baseline, during injection and during extraction using the sound, eye, and motor (SEM) scale objectively, and subjectively using the faces pain rating scale (FPS).

Fracture surgeries are frequently accompanied by severe pain, necessitating efficacious pain management strategies to enhance postoperative recovery. Nerve block techniques, which are critical in mitigating pain, involve the targeted administration of local anesthetics to disrupt nerve signal transmission, thereby achieving significant analgesia. Traditionally, these techniques rely on anatomical landmarks and the clinician's expertise, which can introduce variability and potential risks.

Introduction: Wound treatment is a significant health burden in any healthcare system, which requires proper management to minimize pain and prevent bacterial infections that can complicate the wound healing process.

Rationale: There is a need to develop innovative therapies to accelerate wound healing cost-effectively. Herein, two polymer-based nanofibrous systems were developed using poly-lactic-co-glycolic-acid (PLGA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) loaded with a combination of an antibiotic (Fusidic acid, FA) and a local anesthetic (Lidocaine, LDC) via electrospinning technique for an expedited healing process by preventing bacterial infections while reducing the pain sensation.
