چکیده
OBJECTIVE The principal mechanism of cardiac toxicity of bupivacaine relates to the blockade of myocardial sodium channels, which leads to an increase in the QRS duration. Recently, experimental studies suggest that lipid emulsion is effective in reversing bupivacaine cardiac toxicity. We aimed to evaluate the temporal evolution of the QRS widening induced by bupivacaine with the administration of Intralipid. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twelve pigs were anesthetized with intravenous sodium thiopental 5mg kg(-1) and sevoflurane 1 MAC (2.6%). Femoral artery and vein were canalized for invasive monitoring, analysis of blood gases and determination of bupivacaine levels. After instrumentation and monitoring, a bupivacaine bolus of 4-6 mg kg(-1) was administered in order to induce a 150% increase in QRS duration (defined as the toxic point). The pigs were randomized into two groups of six individuals. Intralipid group (IL) received 1.5 mL kg(-1)of IL over one minute, followed by an infusion of 0.25 mL kg min(-1). Control group (C) received the same volume of a saline solution. The electrocardiographic parameters were recorded, and blood samples were taken after bupivacaine and 1, 5, 10 and 30 minutes after Intralipid/saline administration. RESULTS Bupivacaine (4.33±0.81 mg/kg in IL group and 4.66±1.15 mg/kg in C group) induced similar electrocardiographic changes in both groups; mean maximal percent increase in QRS interval was 184±62% in IL group, and 230±56% in control group (NS). Lipid administration reversed the QRS widening previously impaired by bupivacaine. After ten minutes of the administration of IL, the mean QRS interval decreased to 132±56% vs. 15±76% relative to the maximum widening induced by bupivacaine, in IL and C group, respectively. CONCLUSION Intralipid reversed the lengthening of QRS interval induced by the injection of bupivacaine. Time to normalization of electrocardiographic parameters can last more than 10 minutes. While the phenomena of cardiac toxicity persist, resuscitation measures and adequate monitoring should be continued until adequate heart conduction parameters are restored.

Comparative ventricular electrophysiologic effect of racemic bupivacaine, levobupivacaine, and ropivacaine on the isolated rabbit heart.
BACKGROUND Numerous local anesthetics have an asymmetric tetrahedron carbon, which confers stereoselective differences between the isomers. The authors attempted to quantify the depressant effect of racemic bupivacaine, levobupivacaine, and ropivacaine on myocardial ventricular conduction and on myocardial contractility. METHODS The authors studied the pharmacokinetics (outflow concentration)...

Background and Objective: In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), recurrent seizures accompany with cognitive deficit. In some patients, the current medications cannot provide satisfactory control of seizures, therefore new drugs that act through different mechanisms are required. In the present study, the useful effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor was evaluated in experimental model of tempora...

Introduction: Cognitive dysfunction is recognized as a significant feature of multiple sclerosis (MS). Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of MS. Toxic demyelination by ethidium bromide (EB) is one of the common methods for induction of MS, which leads to neuronal death by production of free radicals and enhancement of oxidative stress burden. According to previous p...
