The generally accepted mechanism responsible for skin permeability enhancement by sonophoresis might be the cavitation effect. Extracorporeal shockwave is developed to be a potent generator of transient cavitation more than most other forms of medical ultrasound with minimal thermal effect. Thus, it might have better medium than ultrasound for sonophoresis. However, extracorporeal shockwave might induce tissue damage. There is lack of study explored the sonophoretic effect of shockwave on transdermal delivery of anesthetic drug. Therefore, the purposes of this study was to use the determined the sonophoretic effect of extracorporeal shockwave by using the pre- or concurrent shockwave-aided Eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA cream) application via an animal study.Methods: Adult male Wistar rats will be used as the experimental subject in this two year project. In the first year, the rats will be assigned to following groups randomly: control, topical, sonophoresis-aided (1MHz ultrasound), pre- and concurrent shockwave-aided EMLA application on the rat tails for 60 minutes. The degree of anesthesia was assessed using the amplitude and latency of sensory nerve action potential which were evaluated by nerve conduction study before and every 5 minutes after treatment for 60 min. In the second year, Rats will be divided into five groups to received shockwave mediated EMLA delivery with .different pulse number and intensity to determine the minimal dosage in this application.Expected results: If this two-year project was granted and completed, a novel protocol, shockwave mediated transdermal drug delivery could be established. This protocol is valuable for both clinical application and development of new medical devices.關鍵字:超音波導入體外震波空泡效應感覺神經傳導SonophoresisExtracorporeal shockwaveCavitationSensory nerve conductionAn Animal Model for Shockwave Mediated Transdermal Drug Delivery
