Summary

We hypothesize that the J-Tip needle-free jet-injection system offers comparable pain control and greater provider satisfaction due to its less invasive nature compared to traditional needle infiltration of 1% lidocaine in infants undergoing lumbar punctures.

Our aim is to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of different local anesthetic techniques in the ED setting by comparing traditional lidocaine needle infiltration with J-tip.

Conditions

  • Anesthesia

Interventions

DEVICE

Needle-Free Jet Injection of 1 % lidocaine

The needle-free jet injection device delivers 1% lidocaine through high-pressure fluid without the use of a needle. This method aims to reduce the pain associated with needle-based anesthesia during infant lumbar punctures.

OTHER

traditional needle infiltration of 1% lidocaine

Traditional needle infiltration involves injecting 1% lidocaine with a needle to provide local anesthesia before an infant lumbar puncture. This method is the standard practice for pain management in such procedures.
