The Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine on Allodynia
The Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine on Allodynia (Carl Koller Grant)

The purpose of this study is to study if lidocaine, given intravenously, reduces pain.

Clinicians use lidocaine intravenously in a fashion that suggests that it might have analgesic effects. Therefore, we test the hypothesis that lidocaine reduces pain intensity in response to experimental pain.
