Background. The general toxic effects of local anesthetics on vital organs are the most severe side regional blockades. purpose was to study effectiveness and safety combined solutions in brachial plexus block. Materials methods. Forty-nine patients were divided into 2 groups. first group (controls) consisted 24 individuals who received a solution 0.5% bupivacaine 36 ml (180 mg) with adrenaline...

The currently available local anesthetic agents are capable of providing high quality nerve blockade in a wide variety of clinical circumstances. Our understanding of the mechanisms and consequences of toxicity is increasing rapidly. Knowledge of the chemistry of local anesthetics has enabled clinicians to exploit the increased safety. Local anesthesia is an important part of the daily routines...

healthy 58-year-old woman had undergone arthrosopy of both temporomandibular joints because of ilateral mandibular clicks and recurrent episodes of aw block that did not respond to nonsurgical treatent. The preoperative examination showed general estriction of mandibular motility (maximal oral aperure 26 mm, right and left lateral deviation 11 and 8 m, respectively, protrusion 10 mm, and dental...

A man suffered severe hypotension down to 20~30 mmHg when he received a surgical remove of glioma. This hypotension was hard to treat with many ways due to the blood pressure did not show any response to many vasoconstrictors, such as: adrenaline, norepinephrine, dopamine, and Aramine etc. A rapid injection of lidocaine 200 mg from right femoral vessel showed an efficient effect on promoting bl...

the present study was designed to assess the efficacy of fentanyl and pancuronium combined with dilute lidocaine solution for axillary block. onehundred adult patients undergoing upper limb surgery were randomly allocated to receive either 0.6 ml/kg of 1 % lidocaine (6 mg/kg) or 0.6 mllkg of 0.5% lidocaine (3 mg/kg) with 1 µg/kg of fentanyl and 0.5 mg of pancuronium. the onset of sensory and mo...

UNLABELLED Propofol emulsion supports bacterial growth. Extrinsic contamination of propofol has been implicated as an etiological event in postsurgical infections. When added to propofol, local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine) alleviate the pain associated with injecting it. Because local anesthetics have antimicrobial activity, we determined whether lidocaine would inhibit microbial growth by com...

in this paper, the photocatalytic degradation of lidocaine hcl, an anesthetic was investigated inaqueous solution using cuo/zno as a photocatalyst. the degradation was studied under differentconditions including the amount of the photocatalyst, irradiation time, initial concentration of drug,ph of the system, initial concentration, addition of oxidant on the reaction rate and anion presence.the...
