03:54 PM Abstract No. 399 Pain during lidocaine injection and throughout ultrasound-guided procedures with or without vapocoolant: a randomized clinical trial

Ultrasound image-guided procedures (USGP) are common and often cause mild to moderate pain both during the procedure and during lidocaine injection. This 110 participant randomized clinical trial evaluated the effectiveness of vapocoolant topical anesthetic application prior to lidocaine injection at reducing pain during the USGP.
