E. G. Whealton
Department of Family Medicine, Naval Medical Center, Portsmouth, Virginia, USA.

BACKGROUND: Recent developments in anesthesia applicable to family practice settings are reviewed. METHODS: MEDLINE was searched using the key words "EMLA"; "iontophoresis"; "lidocaine," "tetracaine, adrenaline, cocaine"; and "lidocaine, epinephrine, tetracaine." RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Clinical experience has shown that there is a definite and evolving role for the newer methods of office anesthesia. Patient care can be improved by reducing the discomfort of patient procedures.
