The Effect of Three Different Medications on Anesthetic Success and Postoperative Pain

The Effect of Premedication With Trypsin, Bromelain and Rutoside Combination on the Success of IAN Block and Post Endodontic Pain in Patients With Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial


Sponsor

Cairo University

Enrollment

120 participants

Start Date

Jun 15, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Pain is a very important factor in Endodontic treatment, Both intra- and Post-operatively. In case of symptomatic Irreversible pulpitis, a build up of inflammatory mediators makes it very difficult for the operator to reach the desired level of anesthesia in order to deliver a pain free treatment as well as to eliminate or at least reduce post-operative pain incidence and severity. therefore, a number of pre- medications was suggested with variable success rates. Therefore this trial aims at the use of a new category of anti-inflammatory medications which would be less harmful than the standard NSAIDs or steroids.
