Ultrasound-guided Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block Study

NCT03748329 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 80

Last updated 2018-11-20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective is to compare the success of the inferior alveolar nerve block using ultrasound versus a traditional landmarking technique (which historically has an approximate failure rate as high as 33.8%). The secondary objective is to demonstrate that delivering a block under ultrasound guidance does not cause any additional pain to patients, as well as to reconfirm data shown in a previous study that the intra-oral transducer is well-tolerated among patients.
