[Anesthesia with jet injection. Use of Medi-Jector EZ dermojet for anesthesia in minor surgery].

The local anaesthetic procedure is often painful to the patient. During a period of 21 weeks, jet injection was used as the anaesthetic procedure in 55 cases of minor surgery in a single general practice. The application is discussed, giving a variety of examples. The method provides a simple and almost pain-free anaesthetic procedure in the majority of minor surgical operations. The amount of anaesthetic is reduced. The method is particularly suitable for anaesthetizing sensitive areas like the finger of a child or verrucas.
