Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators are conducting a study to compare the effectiveness of the Buzzy® device with that of no pain relief method for IV placement in adults with chronic pain receiving lidocaine infusions.


Clinical Trial Description

IV placement is necessary for lidocaine infusions. Unfortunately, some patients say that placing an IV is painful. The investigators are conducting this study to evaluate two techniques that could make the placement of the IV more comfortable. Currently, some medical providers administer the IV without any pain-relieving techniques. Some medical providers place a device called Buzzy® on a patient's arm prior to the IV placement. The Buzzy® device is the combination of an ice pack and a vibrator in the shape of a bumble bee. Literature shows that the Buzzy® device makes IV placement more comfortable for children, but there is minimal data in regard to whether it is helpful for adult patients. The investigators are conducting this study to compare the effectiveness of the Buzzy® device with that of no pain relief method for IV placement in adults with chronic pain receiving lidocaine infusions. The use of the Buzzy® device in adults is the investigational part of the study. This device has been FDA approved for use. ;
