L.; Coelho, H.; Haasova, M.; Cooper, C.; Milner, Q.; Shawyer, Vicki; Hyde, C.; Powell, RoyPeripheral venous cannulation is an everyday practice in hospitals, which many adults find painful. However, anaesthesia for cannulation is usually only offered to children. Inadequate pain relief is not only unpleasant for patients but may cause anxiety about further treatment and deter patients from seeking medical care in the future. The aim of this study is to discover the most effective local anaesthetic for adult peripheral venous cannulation and to find out how the pain of local anaesthetic application compares with that of unattenuated cannulation.Item Developing a vascular access team(Mark Allen Group, 2016-02) Shawyer, Vicki
