Evaluation of Hemodynamic Changes Caused During Dental Extractions- A Clinical Study.

Abstract

Introduction: Local anesthesia is routinely used for dental extractions and other dental procedures. Local anesthetic agents and dental surgery can contribute in hemodynamic changes like altered blood pressure, oxygen saturation and pulse rate. Objectives: To estimate the variation of blood pressure, pulse rate and oxygen saturation during local anesthesia administration and after dental extraction. Materials and Methods: 196 patients from age group 18-74 years of age, who were indicated for dental extractions were selected for the study. Blood pressure, pulse rate and oxygen saturation were recorded before, after LA administration after dental extraction. Result: Significant variation in alteration of pulse rate is seen during LA administration and after extractions and less variation is seen in blood oxygen saturation levels. Significant increase in systolic blood pressure was found in patients after local anesthesia injection and also after extraction. Conclusion: Systolic blood pressure is increased due to increased sympathetic activity which is due to local anesthesia injection and dental extractions. Pulse rate and oxygen saturation vary in anxiety. Any major fluctuation in these variables which is noted early, may alert us to prevent any medical emergency during routine dental procedures.
