Hyperaemia induced by topical application of anaesthetic formulations containing ketocaine.
The hyperaemia produced by topical application of ketocaine-containing formulations was studied in human skin. The temperature in the hyperaemic area was unchanged or decreased which indicates that the hyperaemia was of a passive type, caused by a reduced flow in the venous side of the capillary bed.
