Answered by AI

What are the key goals of this research endeavor?

"This research is focused on evaluating the primary outcome of application site pain assessment over a period from STAR particle application until anaesthesia is achieved, up to one hour. Secondary outcomes include recording and assessing acute skin reactions post-STAR particle applications; logging adverse events starting after lidocaine administration for the subsequent 30 days; and noting serious adverse events observed during that same time frame."

Answered by AI

Are there any spots remaining for this clinical experiment?
