Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Acute pain may occur due to trauma, surgery, infection, disruption of blood circulation or when there is tissue injury. It can be managed using analgesics and conduction anaesthesia, which may be preferable because of superior pain control and fewer side effects. Lidocaine hydrochloride is used topically to relieve itching, burning and pain from skin inflammation. This multicentric observational study is aimed to evaluate the relief gained with lidocaine hydrochloride (ORTODERMINA®) on wound pain in patients with painful wounds and to collect safety information on this treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Acute pain can be managed using analgesics and conduction anaesthesia which may be preferable because of superior pain control and fewer side effects. In this contest, lidocaine hydrochloride (ORTODERMINA®) plays an important role in pain management during wound healing. The properties of ORTODERMINA® and its ability to maintain an adequate level of active drug over the lesion allow a persistent anaesthetic effect. ORTODERMINA® is a drug for topical application in the form of cream, with a high safety profile. However, although the incidence of adverse effects with Lidocaine Ointment 5% is quite low, caution should be exercised, particularly when employing large amounts, since the incidence of adverse effects is directly proportional to the total dose of local anaesthetic agent administered.

This multicentric observational study is aimed to evaluate the relief gained with ORTODERMINA® on wound pain in patients with painful wounds and to collect safety information on this treatment.
