Study Summary
This study compares the efficacy of the Synera patch with Eutectic Mixture of Local Anesthetics (EMLA) as a topical anesthetic for venipuncture in pediatric patients.
Primary Outcome
Participants were asked to report their level of pain using a 6-point Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale ranging from 0, "no pain," to 5, "the most pain you can have." The Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale is a validated tool for measuring pain in patients as young as 3 years old. A FACES pain score less than or equal to 2 is considered no pain to mild pain, and is clinically acceptable. Studies have shown average FACES pain scores for children receiving vascular access with placebo to be 2.2 t
