The Effect of Lidocaine-Prilocaine Cream Combined with or Without Remimazolam on VAS and APAIS Anxiety Score in Patient Undergoing Spinal Anesthesia
2024
Overview
This study aimed to investigate patients' expectative pain of spinal anesthesia puncture and anxiety pre-anesthesia, and to examine the effect of lidocaine-prilocaine cream and remimazolam prior to spinal anesthesia puncture on pain relief and anxiety release.
Patients undergoing spinal anesthesia were divided into control, lidocaine-prilocaine cream, and lidocaine-prilocaine cream with remimazolam groups. A questionnaire consisting of The Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) and patient's concerns and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate patient's anxiety and pain. The primary outcomes were differences in VAS and anxiety scores. Patient's spinal anesthesia-related concerns, advent events and hemodynamic index were also recorded.
The expected spinal anesthesia puncture pain was 5.34±0.27 and anxiety scores before spinal anesthesia was 10.88 ± 0.64. A statistically significant positive correlation of 31.3% was detected between VAS and APAIS scores (r = 0.313; P=0.003). The VAS score at the time of puncture decreased by 29.7% (3.78±0.40, P=0.001) in lidocaine-prilocaine cream group and 29.2% (3.75±0.39, P=0.001) in lidocaine-prilocaine cream with remimazolam group compared with the expected VAS score. Lidocaine-prilocaine cream combined with or without remimazolam reduced the percentage of moderate pain (21.4% and 31.3% vs 50.0%, P=0.0001) and increased mild pain (60.7% vs 59.4% vs 22.7%, P=0.03). Anxiety score in lidocaine-prilocaine cream group was reduced by 2.84 (8.04±0.76 vs 10.88 ± 0.46, P=0.05) when compared with pre-anesthesia. Concerns about postoperative pain (P=0.03) and fear of the needle or intervention (P=0.000) both decreased post-anesthesia among groups.
Approximately half of the patients scheduled for spinal anesthesia experienced a moderate level of preoperative anxiety. The patient's pain expectation from the spinal anesthesia puncture was moderate, which was higher than the actual pain. Lidocaine-prilocaine cream with or without remimazolam sedative before spinal anesthesia puncture reduced the patient's pain and anxiety scores after surgery.
