ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to determine the mean blood glucose concentration in patients with dia-betes undergoing tooth extraction after administration of local anesthesia with or without adrenaline. A Randomized control trial [RCT] study was carried out from October 2015 to June 2016 in the De-partment of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Islamic International Dental Hospital [IIDH] Islamabad on 60 diabetic patients undergoing tooth extraction requiring administration of local anesthesia. All patients were randomly divided into two equal groups that is group A [lignocaine without adrenaline] and group B [lignocaine with adrenaline]. Blood glucose concentration measurements were taken 10 minutes before, 10 minutes and 20 minutes after administration of local anesthesia. Data were analyzed through SPSS version 17.Patient's age ranged from 25-75 years. Average age of patient was 64.5+/-9.86. There were 37% males and 23% females in both groups. The mean blood glucose concentration was increased in group B when compared to group A from 154 to 163.2mg/dl at 10 minutes. This increase in blood glucose concentration was statistically not significant [P ? 0.05]. There was statistically significant [P<0.05] increase in blood glucose concentration in group B when compared to group A from 155.0 to 176.16 mg/dl at 20 minutes.It was concluded that though 2% lignocaine with adrenaline is widely used local anesthetic, it should be cautiously used in type 2 diabetics
