Summary

Burn pain is known to be one the most severe forms of acute pain often requiring large amounts of narcotics in addition to other adjuvants. Topical lidocaine is effective for controlling pain in various settings including dressing changes of burns. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of topical lidocaine in decreasing pain scores and narcotic requirements when applied to donor graft sites while at the same time not interfering with the standard of care TheraBond dressing. During this study the investiagtors will be monitoring for evidence of delayed wound healing, and surgical site infection.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Lidocaine

Subjects in this group will receive a nonpyrogenic solution of lidocaine 2% in isotonic saline (Solution A) sprayed on the donor site of the grafted skin prior to emergence from general anesthesia. A total maximum of 7mg/kg of lidocaine solution will be available for administration. Prior to spraying of the Solution A, the donor site will be soaked with epinephrine soaked towels as per routine burn care. The site will then be covered with TheraBond dressing as per standard burn care.

DRUG

Placebo

Subjects in this group will receive a nonpyrogenic solution of isotonic saline (Solution B) sprayed over the donor site. Prior to spraying of the Solution B, the donor site will be soaked with epinephrine soaked towels as per routine burn care. The site will then be covered with TheraBond dressing as per standard burn care.
