Response of mhs swine to i.v. infusion of lignocaine and bupivacaine.

چکیده
We report the negative response of MHS swine to i.v. infusion of lignocaine and bupivacaine yielding plasma concentrations which equal or exceed those reported in humans during extradural analgesia. It is concluded that local anaesthetic techniques using the amide-linked local anaesthetics administered in conventional dosage are safe to use in patients known to be genetically susceptible to malignant hyperthermia.

Hypnotic effect of i.v. propofol is enhanced by i.m. administration of either lignocaine or bupivacaine.
We have compared the hypnotic requirements for i.v. propofol when combined with i.m. lignocaine or bupivacaine. Ninety women (ASA I, II) undergoing minor gynaecological surgery were allocated randomly to one of nine groups of 10 patients to receive propofol combined with i.m. lignocaine, bupivacaine or saline, respectively. Propofol was administered in bolus doses of 0.2 mg kg-1 every 30 s unti...
متن کاملThe Effect of Subcutaneous Dexamethasone Added to Bupivacaine on Postcesarean Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Previous studies have shown a prolonged blockade of nerves using bupivacaine-dexamethasone microspheres. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of subcutaneous dexamethasone added to bupivacaine on post cesarean pain. Methods: After randomization, 75 healthy parturients were allocated into three groups and received the following treatments: group A: bupivacaine 0.25% (20 ml...
متن کاملSpinal anesthesia for cesarean section: comparison of 5.0% lignocaine and 0.5% bupivacaine.
Objective of the study was to compare the effect of the drugs, intraoperative hemodynamic variables (heart rate, blood pressure) and associated complications (hypotension, nausea, shivering etc) between the bupivacaine and lignocaine group, when administered intrathecally in patients undergoing caesarean section. This is a randomized prospective study where the haemodynamic changes and the comp...
متن کاملThe screening of atracurium in MHS swine.
The potential role of atracurium besylate as a trigger or attenuator of the malignant hyperthermia syndrome was tested in six MHS Landrace swine. Animals were tested for susceptibility and then exposed to atracurium given as an i.v. bolus both alone and concomitantly with 2% halothane. In no instance could the syndrome be triggered by atracurium nor did it convincingly attenuate the syndrome wh...
متن کاملAn investigation in man into the relative potency of lignocaine, bupivacaine and etidocaine.
The relative potency of lignocaine, bupivacaine and etidocaine was estimated by forearm skin weals in four volunteers. Potency was estimated as the time to half-recovery of a sharp sensation in response to a needle-prick. The increase in duration of action with increased concentration was greater for bupivacaine and etidocaine as compared with lignocaine. At the same concentrations, bupivacaine...
