Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether 2% lidocaine (L) + clonidine (C) (15 mcg/ml) as a vasoconstrictor achieves efficient (equal or better parameters of intraoral local anesthesia in comparison to 2% lidocaine + epinephrine (E) (1:80 000)) and safe (stable cardiovascular parameters - systolic, diastolic, mean blood pressure and heart rate) intraoral local anesthesia in patients with Diabetes mellitus type 2.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients with diabetes mellitus type 2, represent a risk for performing regional anesthesia techniques due to microvascular (microangiopathy, neuropathy) and macrovascular (hypertension, coronary heart disease) complications. There is evidence that local anesthetic toxicity may be increased in diabetic setting due to underlying neuropathy; while interaction of diabetic blood vessels with vasoconstrictors may be of importance because of microangiopathic changes. Lately, regional anesthesia protocol in general surgery for patients with diabetes mellitus was released, proposing reduction of local anesthetic concentration and avoiding epinephrine as vasoconstrictor.

Oral cavity tissues in diabetes mellitus also suffer from neuropathy (burning, paresthesia, teeth loss, temporomandibular dysfunction, xerostomia) and microangiopathy (periodontal disease, salivary gland dysfunction). Most widely used vasoconstrictor for intraoral local anesthesia, epinephrine, is an alpha- and beta- adrenergic agonist. Because of its beta-adrenergic effects, epinephrine could adversely affect cardiovascular function, especially in risk patients. There are data suggesting that intraoral local anesthesia obtained with 2% lidocaine with clonidine, selective alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist as a vasoconstrictor, is characterized with significantly more stable cardiovascular parameters and similar parameters of local anesthesia with respect to lidocaine with epinephrine in healthy and hypertensive patients.

With regard to aforementioned, the aim of this randomized double-blind controlled clinical trial is to evaluate and compare efficacy and safety of intraoral local anesthesia obtained with 2% lidocaine (L) + clonidine (15 mcg/ml) (C) or 2% L + epinephrine (1:80 000) (E), comparing healthy and diabetes mellitus type 2 patients. Prior to tooth extraction, random allocation to one of four groups (L+C maxillary infiltration, L+C mandibular block, L+E maxillary infiltration and L+E mandibular block) is performed for diabetic (30 per group) and healthy (30 per group) patients. Parameters of local anesthesia (onset, duration, intensity, width of anesthetic field for maxillary infiltration), cardiovascular parameters (systolic, diastolic, mean arterial pressure; heart rate and electrocardiographic changes), quality of postoperative analgesia (assessed by Visual Analogue Scale, Numerical Rating Scale and number of consumed analgesics) and postoperative complications (infection, bleeding, paresthesia, delayed wound healing) are evaluated and compared. ;
