Abstract
- Adrenaline in local anaesthetics: do students and junior doctors still believe the myth? Of the choices of local anaesthetic preparations, two contained adrenaline (1% lignocaine with 1:100 000 adrenaline and 0.25% bupivacaine with 1:100 000 adrenaline) and three did not (1% lignocaine, 0.25% bupivacaine and 0.25% ropivacaine). Medical students and junior doctors choose to use local anaesthetic preparations without adrenaline for areas of the body supplied by end arteries, despite there is evidence that the use of adrenaline is safe and advantageous.
