Official title
Effectiveness of External Vibration for Pain Relief During Peripheral Intravenous Cannulation in Adult Patients
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
A large number of dentoalveolar (tooth extraction) procedures performed by Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons utilize intravenous sedation. Procedures commonly performed may include surgical removal of teeth, bone grafting, surgical placement of dental implants, and removal of cysts or tumors from the jaws, among others. Obtaining peripheral intravevenous (IV) cannulation often proves to be a very stressful and anxious event for the patient. The anxiety and stress from the venipuncture alone affects not only the psychological stability of the patient, but also the patient's physiology. The Buzzy vibration external stimulation device has shown to be an effective tool in pediatric venipunture procedures. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the Buzzy stimulation device in pain and anxiety reduction during peripheral intravenous cannulation in an adult population. Enrollees in this study will be patients who will undergo dental surgery with intravenous sedation. The patients who are enrolled will receive an IV either with or without the Buzzy. The Buzzy is a small vibration device which will be placed next to the IV placement site.
