Study Summary

Intravenous lidocaine is commonly given through an intravenous (IV) line prior to injection of propofol to reduce the amount of pain during propofol injection. The investigators want to study if giving the lidocaine through the IV while the forearm on the same limb has a tourniquet applied to it to prevent "washing out" of the lidocaine prior to propofol injection helps reduce propofol injection pain.

Primary Outcome

Patient's verbal rating of pain during injection (see link to study protocol) We used a Verbal Rating Scale from the patient that self-described discomfort level during injection using question: How would you rate your pain using None, Mild, Moderate, Severe and record it on this 4-point scale: * None (0) * Mild (1) * Moderate (2) * Severe (3) None is no pain (best outcome) and Severe is worst pain possible (worst outcome).
