The tumescent technique. Anesthesia and modified liposuction technique.
Using the tumescent technique, liposuction can remove large volumes of fat with minimal blood loss. A maximal safe dosage of dilute lidocaine using the tumescent technique is estimated to be 35 mg/kg. The slow infiltration of a local anesthetic solution of lidocaine and epinephrine minimizes the rate of systemic absorption and reduces the potential for toxicity. Dilution of lidocaine (0.05% of ...
متن کاملTumescent technique for regional anesthesia permits lidocaine doses of 35 mg/kg for liposuction.
The tumescent technique for local anesthesia permits regional local anesthesia of the skin and subcutaneous tissues by direct infiltration. The tumescent technique uses large volumes of a dilute anesthetic solution to produce swelling and firmness of targeted areas. This investigation examines the absorption pharmacokinetics of dilute solutions of lidocaine (0.1% or 0.05%) and epinephrine (1:1,...
متن کاملTumescent technique chronicles. Local anesthesia, liposuction, and beyond.
The reality of tumescent liposuction is just the opposite of what one might expect based on common sense and experience. The dilution of a local anesthetic solution of lidocaine and epinephrine does not weaken its effect, it actually enhances the degree of anesthesia, and vasoconstriction. Although microcannulas remove less fat per unit of time, they actually permit the removal of greater volum...
متن کامل[Tumescent anesthesia in dermatologic surgery].
Tumescent anesthesia is a local anesthetic technique that consists of the infiltration of a large volume of solution with a low concentration of the local anesthetic agent and epinephrine. Its main advantages are that it achieves adequate anesthesia and a significant reduction in intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, leading to greater ease of surgery with the added benefit that it facilit...
متن کاملTumescent technique for local anesthesia improves safety in large-volume liposuction.
The tumescent technique for local anesthesia improves the safety of large-volume liposuction ( > or = 1500 ml of fat) by virtually eliminating surgical blood loss and by completely eliminating the risks of general anesthesia. Results of two prospective studies of large-volume liposuction using the tumescent technique are reported. In 112 patients, the mean lidocaine dosage was 33.3 mg/kg, the m...
