Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study is to present the indication, contraindication, side effects and complications of commonly used local anaesthetics and knowledge, manner and attitude of the practicing physicians towards local anaesthetics. Material and Methods: The questionnaires were applied on 141 of 251 physicians who were presumably using local anaesthetics in their practice. Results: Physicians have come from 17 different specialties. Research workers (55 %), specialists from different disciplines (42.9 %) and general practitioners (2.1 %) have participated in the study. Only 34.3 % of the participants have declared that they were trained in local anaesthetic applications. Although the anaesthetists composed the greatest part of the group who had been aware of that type of therapy, none of them had used it. Among the anaesthetists, the number of physicians trained in the application of local anaesthetics were statistically significantly higher (59.3 %) (p=0,01) than the specialists of other disciplines. Twenty -nine of the participants (20.7 %) who responded to questionnaires had declared that they had encountered local anaesthetic toxicity. The incidence of local anaesthetic toxicity and usage of non- lipid treatment modalities were found to be significantly higher in the anaesthetist group than the other specialties (p

Özet

Amaç: Lokal anestezikler, günlük pratikte yalnızca anestezistler tarafından değil, diğer branş hekimleri tarafından da kullanılan ilaçlardır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, yaygın olarak kullanılan lokal anesteziklerin endikasyon, kontrendikasyon, yan etki ve komplikasyonları ile bunların tedavisi hakkında ilacı kullanan doktorların bilgi, tutum ve davranışlarını incelemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Anket, hastanemizde çalışmakta olan ve lokal anestezik kullandığı öngörülen 251 hekimden 141’ine uygulandı. Bulgular: Ankete 17 branştan hekim katıldı (27 anestezist (% 19,3), 18 ortopedist (% 12,9), 17 genel cerrah (% 12,1), 16 kulak burun boğaz uzmanı (% 11,4), 11 ürolog (% 7,9), diğer (% 35,6)). Katılımcıların % 55’i asistan, % 42,9’u uzman, % 2,1’i pratisyendi. Katılımcıların yalnızca % 34,3’ü lokal anesteziklerle ilgili eğitim aldıklarını bildirdi. Anestezistler arasında eğitim almış olanlar diğer branşlardan hekimlere göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı yüksekti (% 59,3) (p=0,01). Ankete katılan hekimlerden 29 (% 20,7)’u daha önce lokal anestezik toksisitesiyle karşılaştıklarını belirtti. Anestezistler grubunda lokal anestezik toksisitesiyle karşılaşma ve lipid dışı tedavileri kullanma sıklığı, diğer branşlara göre ileri derecede anlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (p
