Abstract

The aims of the study were to evaluate the effect of epinephrine-containing local anesthetics on pulpal blood flow (PBF) and to investigate its effect on cavity preparation-induced PBF change. PBF was recorded using a laser Doppler flowmeter (Perimed Co., Sweden) from canines of nine cats under general anesthesia before and after injection of local anesthetics and after cavity preparation. 2% lidocaine hydrochloride with 1 : 100,000 epinephrine was administered by local infiltration given apical to the mandibular canine at the vestibular area and the same volume of isotonic saline was injected on the contralateral tooth as a control. A round carbide bur was operated at slow speed with isotonic saline flushing to grind spherical cavities with increasing depth through the enamel and into the dentin on both teeth. The obtained data was analyzed with paired t-test. Cavity preparation caused significant increase of PBF (n = 9, p < 0.05). Local infiltration of lidocaine with epinephrine resulted in decreases of PBF (n = 9, p < 0.05), whereas there was no significant change of PBF with the physiologic saline as a control. Cavity preparation on tooth anesthetized with lidocaine with epinephrine caused significantly less increase of PBF than in control tooth (p < 0.05). Therefore, the result of the present study demonstrates that local infiltration of 2% lidocaine with 1 : 100,000 epinephrine effectively reduces PBF increase caused by cavity preparation.

에피네프린을 함유한 국소마취제가 치수혈류량에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고, 이 국소마취가 와동 형성에 의해 야기되는 치수의 혈류변화에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 전신마취 된 아홉 마리의 고양이 견치에서 1 : 100.000 에피네프린이 함유된 2% 리도카인 용액으로의 국소 침윤마취 전후 및 와동형성 전후의 치수혈류를 laser Doppler flowmetry (Periflux 4001, Perimed Co.. Sweden)를 사용하여 측정하고 paired t-test 로 통계 분석하였다 . 상아질 와동의 형성은 치수혈류의 현저한 증가를 초래하였다 (p < 0.05). 에피네프린을 함유한 리도카인의 침윤마취는 치수혈류를 유의하게 감소시켰다 (p < 0.05). 국소마취 한 치아에서는 마취되지 않은 치아에 비해 와동형성 시 유의하게 적은 치수혈류의 증가를 나타내었다 (p < 0.05). 따라서 본 연구에서는 혈관수축제를 포함한 국소마취가 와동 형성에 의해 초래되는 혈류량의 증가를 효과적으로 억제할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.
