objective: to evaluate the ability of lidocaine local injection to relieve postoperative pain in cesarean delivery. materials and methods: this double blinded clinical trial was conducted in a university on 100 women underwent elective cesarean section during march 2012 till march 2013. patients were divided to two groups with random block method (n = 50 in each group). first group received 4mg...

background: morphine and lidocaine are known to influence the perception of pain. the present study sought to determine the influence of local administration of morphine on lidocaine-induced analgesia in morphine non-dependent (mnd), morphine dependent (md) and morphine withdrawal (mw) animals. methods: adult male wistar rats were divided into four groups: control, mnd, md and mw rats. lidocain...

Perioperative intravenous lidocaine (IVL) can help minimize opioid-related side effects that impede the postoperative recovery process. Neurological were averaged at an 8 mg/kg dose, and cardiotoxicity reported plasma values greater than 21 g/ml. Approximately 90% of is converted to monoethylglycinexylidide (MEGX) in liver via oxidative demethylation (dealkylation). Analysis MEGX concentrations...

Objective- This study was performed to investigate the analgesic effects of lidocaine and lidocaine/tramadol combination in epidural anaesthesia in dromedary camels. Design- Experimental Study Animals- Eight healthy immature dromedary camels Methods - The camels were randomly designed in 2 equal groups. In group L: lidocaine 2% (0.22 mg/kg) and in group LT: a combination of lidocaine 2% (0.22 m...

BACKGROUND Synovial fluid culture (SFC) is recommended as one of the major diagnostic criteria by the Musculoskeletal Infection Society (MSIS) for diagnosing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Local anesthetic agents are used for anesthesia and analgesia in some clinical settings to relieve pain. As a local anesthetic, lidocaine is safely used in arthrocentesis to obtain synovial fluid. The ...

Objective- To compare the lidocaine-MgSO4 combination with lidocaine-Distilled water inthe epidural of indigenous awake dogs.Design- Prospective experimental study.Animals- Five young (12±2 months) female indigenous dogs weighting (10.74 ± 0.44 kg).Procedures- Epidural anesthesia was produced in all dogs with 2% lidocaine (1ml/4.5 kgbody weight) with 1 ml distilled water and two weeks later rep...

We investigated whether cutaneous stimulus threshold (CST), as determined using a Neurometer, could be used for quantitative and differential nerve evaluation of reversible and irreversible nerve block following intrathecal lidocaine administration in rats. Rats with intrathecal catheters were randomly assigned to one of five groups (saline or 2, 5, 10, or 20% lidocaine). Prior to and 4 days af...

Lallemantia royleana (Balangu) is a well known Iranian medicinal plant that its seed mucilage has many applications in modern pharmacology. Plant mucilage traditionally was used as a gel supplement, and natural matrix for sustained release of drugs. But it seems that these compounds are not a simple additive and also have many undiscovered pharmacological properties. In this research, the anest...
