Comparative study related to cardiovascular safety between bupivacaine (S75-R25) and ropivacaine in brachial plexus block.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Bupivacaine is a fi rst choice for regional anesthesia considering its effectiveness, long duration and less motor blockade. Bupivacaine (S75-R25) is a mixture of optical isomers containing 75% levobupivacaine (S-) and 25% dextrobupivacaine (R+) created by a Brazilian pharmaceutical company. This investigation compared cardiac safety and efficacy of bupivacaine S75-R25...
متن کاملComparison of bupivacaine hydrochloride and carbonated bupivacaine in brachial plexus blood by the interscalene technique.
Carbonated local anaesthetics may have shorter latency and greater spread than equivalent hydrochloride salts when used for regional anaesthesia. In brachial plexus anaesthesia produced by the supraclavicular technique, Bromage and Gertel (1970) using 1% lignocaine and Schulte-Steinberg, Hartmuth and Schiitt (1970) using 2% lignocaine, reported a marked decrease in the time of onset of anaesthe...
متن کاملInterscalene brachial plexus block for shoulder surgery.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy of interscalene brachial plexus block as the primary anesthetic for shoulder surgery, the influence on blood loss, and the rate of complication. METHODS Retrospective review of 676 reconstructive surgical procedures of the shoulder for anesthetic technique (regional or general), regional anesthetic technique (paresthesia versus nerve stimulat...
متن کاملEffective volume of ropivacaine 0.75% through a catheter required for interscalene brachial plexus blockade.
BACKGROUND Ultrasound guidance during peripheral nerve blocks has allowed for reduction in dose and volume of local anesthetic required to accomplish successful blockade using multiple injections through a needle. The authors undertook this study to determine the minimal effective volume required to accomplish successful interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB) through the catheter. METHODS A...
متن کاملComparative Study of Anaesthetic Properties of Bupivacaine Alone And A Combination of Dexamethasone And Bupivacaine, for Interscalene Brachial Plexus Block, in Upper Limb Surgery
Background: Peripheral nerve blocks are used as the sole anaesthetic technique to facilitate painless surgery supplemented with monitored anaesthesia care. People have tried mixing local anaesthetic with adjuvant drugs in an attempt to prolong analgesia duration. Aims of this study is to determine the effects of dexamethasone, when added to bupivacaine on the onset, duration of sensory blockade...
