Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
For this prospective randomized study, the hypothesis is that an anesthetic drug, lidocaine, injected in the uterine arteries diminishes pain post-UFE. Patients will be randomized in 3 groups: control, lidocaine injected during embolization, and lidocaine injected after embolization. Pain will be evaluated using a validated scale at 4h and 24h post-intervention. Hospital length-of-stay and total narcotic dose administered will be evaluated in the three groups.
This is the first Canadian study evaluating lidocaine use for pain control in UFE patients. Results will be transferable to clinical practice, considering the use of lidocaine is simple and cost is negligible. It could have a great impact on pain management in women undergoing UFE in all practice settings.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control
The control group will undergo uterine artery embolization according to regular protocol, without the administration of lidocaine.
No interventions assigned to this group
Lidocaine per-embolization
This group will receive 10mL of 1% lidocaine in both uterine artery during the embolization; the lidocaine will be mixed with the embolization particles.
Lidocaine per-embolization
10mL of 1% lidocaine will be mixed with the embolization particles. Lidocaine will therefore be injected during the embolization.
Lidocaine post-embolization
10mL of 1% lidocaine will be injected in both uterine arteries after embolization endpoint is achieved.
Lidocaine post-embolization
10mL of 1% lidocaine will be injected in both uterine arteries after the embolization endpoint is achieved.
