UNASSIGNED: Objective: In this study the author proposes to compare eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA) and an odontoiatric spray solution of 10% @entity3303 (Ecocain) for surgical debridement in @entity3179 . Approach: Fifty @entity1 were recruited and randomly assigned into two groups (A, B). All of them have venous leg @entity1066 in the medial and/or lateral malleolar region. Group A: topical anesthetic EMLA with film occlusion. Group B: topical anesthesia with Ecocain. The author proceeded to surgical debridement after local anesthesia. A questionnaire and a visual analog scale (VAS) were administered to assess the amount of @entity158 felt during the debridement and during the following 6   h. Results: The analysis of the VAS revealed no major significant differences statistically. The analysis of the questionnaires showed @entity1 treated with Ecocain took more analgesic drugs. Analysis of the timing and quality of procedure showed that Ecocain reduced the timing of debridement and dressing change, improving the outpatient management and @entity1 compliance. Innovations: For rapid debridement, the most appropriate is to use Ecocain. Conclusion: Methods of local anesthesia are multiple and must be identified according to the needs of the @entity1 and the surgeon trying to get the best anesthesia with minimal use of time and resources.
