JSS increased substantially when pH was close to the pKa of LH. The profile of JSS versus pH showed an 慡?shaped curve. JSS of Lidocaine free base (LFB) was fourteen times that of LH. The pH of vehicle influences the permeation of LH significantly and should be considered as an important factor when a formulation is developed.展开更多

By the monophasic action potential （MAP） recording technique, MAPs of epicardium, midmyocardium and endocardium were simultaneously recorded across the left ventricular free wall in rabbit hearts perfused by low-flow ischemia （2. 5 mL/min） in Langendorff method to study the transmural dispcrsion of repolarization （TDR） and arrhythmic induced by ischemia.Our results showed that TDR of three myocardial layers in ischemia group were significantly lengthened after ischemia. TDR was increased from 17.5±3.9 ms to 31.2±4.6 ms at the time that concided with the onset of sustained ventricle arrhythmic. Amiodarone could decrease TDR, but lidocaine could increase TDR at initial ischemia, and no significant difference was found at other ischemia time points. 5 cases had ventriclar arrhythmia in ischemia group （62. 5%）, but no case in lidocaine group （P〈0.01） and only 1 case in amiodarone group had ventrilar arrhythmia （P〈 0.01）. No significant difference was found between amiodarone group and lidocaine group. It is concluded that TDR of of three myocardial layers increases significantly at ischemia and it is closely associated with development of ventricular arrhythmia, and amiodarone could decrease TDR, but lidocaine could increase TDR at initial ischemia and has no effects at other ischemia time points.展开更多

At the end of surgery, tables were assigned to each patient indicating the degree of pain(0-3) felt during the operation.RESULTS: Thirty-two percent of patients in group 1 declared to have not felt any pain against the 77% of patients in group 2. Fifty-nine percent of patients in group 1 complained about only a slight discomfort against 20% of group 2 patients. Only a small percentage of patients in group 1(5%) admitted severe pain, while no patient in group 2 admitted severe pain. Four patients of group 2 reported an episode of transient amaurosis, lasting several hours after surgery.CONCLUSION: Intracameral administration of lidocaine is a simple and secure method able to increase the analgesia during the cataract surgery, eliminating the discomfort and increasing also the cooperation of the patients during the steps of manipulation.展开更多

Methods： Forty-five patients were divided into three groups to receive epidurally administered saline （Group S）, 1.5% （w/w） lidocaine （Group L）, or 0,5% （w/w） ropivacaine （Group R） Propofol infusion was started to produce blood concentration of 4 lag/ml. Once the BIS value reached 40-50, endotracheal intubation was facilitated by 0.1 mg/kg vecuronium. Measurements included the time to LOC, effect-site propofol concentrations, total propofol dose, mean arterial blood pressure （MABP）, and heart rate （HR） at different study time points. Results： During induction of anesthesia, both Groups L and R were similar for the time to LOC, effect-site propofol concentrations, total propofol dose, MABP, HR, and BIS. The total doses of propofol administered until 1 min post-intubation were significantly less in patients of Groups R and L compared with Group S. MABP and HR were significantly lower following propofol induction compared with baseline values in the three groups, or MABP was significantly increased following intubation as compared with that prior to intubation in Group S but not in Groups R and L while HR was significantly increased following intubation in the three groups. Conclusion： Epidural anesthesia with 1.5% lidocaine and 0.5% ropivacaine has similar effects on the time to LOC, effect-site propofol concentrations, total propofol dose, and the hemodynamic variables during induction of general anesthesia.展开更多

This meta-...Objective： The relative preventative efficacy of amiodarone and lidocaine for ventricular fibrillation（VF） after release of an aortic cross-clamp（ACC） during open heart surgery has not been determined. This meta-analysis was designed to systematically evaluate the influence of amiodarone, lidocaine, or placebo on the incidence of VF after ACC. Methods： Prospective randomized controlled trials（RCTs） that compared the VF-preventative effects of amiodarone with lidocaine, or amiodarone or lidocaine with placebo were included. Pub Med, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched for relevant RCTs. Fixed or randomized effect models were applied according to the heterogeneity of the data from the selected studies. Results： We included eight RCTs in the analysis. Pooled results suggested that the preventative effects of amiodarone and lidocaine were comparable（relative risk（RR）=1.12, 95% confidence interval（CI）： 0.70 to 1.80, P=0.63）, but both were superior to the placebo（amiodarone, RR=0.71, 95% CI： 0.51 to 1.00, P=0.05; lidocaine, RR=0.63, 95% CI： 0.46 to 0.88, P=0.006）. The percentage of patients requiring electric defibrillation counter shocks（DCSs） did not differ significantly among patients administered amiodarone（RR=0.21, 95% CI： 0.04 to 1.19, P=0.08）, lidocaine（RR=2.44, 95% CI： 0.13 to 44.02, P=0.55）, or the placebo（RR=0.56, 95% CI： 0.25 to 1.25, P=0.16）. Conclusions： Amiodarone and lidocaine are comparably effective in preventing VF after ACC, but the percentage of patients who subsequently require DCSs does not differ among those administered amiodarone, lidocaine, or placebo.展开更多

The square wave voltammogram of lidocaine solution showed a well-defined peak between ＋0.5 and ＋1.5 V. Instrumental and chemical parameters influencing voltammetric response were optimized by both one at a time and Box–Behnken model of response surface methodology. The results revealed that there was no significant difference between two methods of optimization. The linear range was 1–2500 μmol L^-1（Ip= 0.11 C（LH）＋ 17.38, R^2= 0.999）. The LOD and LOQ based on three and ten times of the signal to noise（S/N） were 0.39 and 1.3 μmol L^-1（n = 10）,respectively. The precision of the method was assessed for 10 replicate square wave voltammetry（SWV）determinations each of 0.05, 0.5 and 1 μmol L^-1 of lidocaine showing relative standard deviations 4.1%,3.7% and 2.1%, respectively. The reliability of the proposed method was established by application of the method for the determination of lidocaine in two pharmaceutical preparations, namely injection and gel.展开更多

METHODS: Eighty patients undergoing diagnostic esophagogastroduodenoscopy in a tertiary care medical center were randomized to either lidocaine swab or spray. Intravenous meperidine and midazolam were given as needed during the procedure. RESULTS: Patients in the lidocaine swab group (SWG) tolerated the procedure better than those in the spray group (SPG) with a median tolerability score of 2 (1, 4) compared to 4 (2, 5) (P < 0.01). The endoscopists encountered less diffi culty performing the proceduresin the SWG with lower median difficulty scores of 1 (1, 5) compared to 4 (1, 5) in the SPG (P < 0.01). In addition, the need for intravenous sedation was also lower in the SWG compared to the SPG with fewer patients requiring intravenous sedation (13/40 patients vs 38/40 patients, respectively, P < 0.01). The patients in the SWG were more satisfi ed with the mode of local anesthesia they received as compared to the SPG. In addition, the endoscopists were happier with the use of lidocaine swab. CONCLUSION: The use of a posterior lingual lidocaine swab in esophagogastroduodenoscopy improves patient comfort and tolerance and endoscopist satisfaction and decreases the need for intravenous sedation.展开更多

Previous studies from our laboratory have revealed that injection of lidocaine （2 mg） into the cisterna magna reduces cerebral vasospasm and nerve functional impairment in an animal model of subarachnoid hemorrhage. The present study determined the optimal lidocaine dose for vasospasm and brain injury by injecting different doses of lidocaine into the cisterna magna in a rabbit model of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Results showed that endothelin, tumor necrosis factor-a, and interleukin-6 levels significantly increased in plasma, and calcitonin gene-related peptide levels significantly decreased in plasma （P 〈 0.05）. The number of neurons was decreased, the number of cells expressing c-Fos increased in the hippocampus, and cross-sections and diameters of basilar arteries were reduced （P 〈 0.05）. These changes significantly improved following injection of lidocaine （1,2, 4, and 6 mg） into the cisterna magna. A dose of 6 mg lidocaine into the cisterna magna resulted in optimal effects on cerebral vasospasm and brain injury following subarachnoid hemorrhage.展开更多

We propose that action of local anesthetic on TPRV1. The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), also known as the capsaicin receptor and the vanilloid receptor can explain this effect and explain mechanism of burning sensation on local anesthetic injected subcutaneously or intramuscular. Role of TRPV1 receptor was not discussed previously in Obstetric Anesthesia literature. Based on available data, we propose that Local Anesthetics work as agonist/antagonist on TPRV1 receptors. Antagonist action may cause hyperthermia through modifying thermoregulation [4], agonist action may cause hyperthermia thru release of IL-6 and other mediators of inflammation [5-10]. Agonist action may explain burning sensation on injection of Local Anesthetics. Burning sensation can be diminished by increasing pH of Local Anesthetic solution, because vanillin receptors are stimulated by acidification through lower pH [11,12].展开更多

Methods： Sixty patients were randomly divided into 4 groups： In the control group patients were given saline; in the lidocaine group patients were given 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine ; in the diltiazem group patients were given 0. 2 mg/kg diltiazem; and in the lidocaine plus diltiazem group patients were given 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine and 0. 2 mg/kg diltiazem. These drugs were given 2 rain before tracheal extuhation. Values for SBP, DBP, and HR were recorded, on arriving at the operating room, immediately at the end of the surgery, at the time of injection of the study drugs, at tracheal extubation, at 1 min and 5 min after extubation. The quality of extubation according to the Sebel＇s grading scale were compared among the 4 groups. Results：During extubation in the control group HR, SBP and DBP increased significantly when compared to baseline levels. Both lidocaine （1.0 mg/kg） and diltiazem （0. 2 mg/kg） successfully alleviated these increases. The suppressive effect of diltiazem was greater than that of lidocaine. The combinative use of the two drugs minimized the increases. The administration of lidocaine significantly suppressed bucking or coughing compared with the other groups. Conclusions： The pressor responses and tachycardia occurring in patients with uvulopalatopharyngoplasty during emergence from anesthesia and tracheal extubation, can be easily blocked by a bolus dose of 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine, 0. 2 mg/kg diltiazem or the comhinative use of the two drugs.

The study compared the validity of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg and low combination dose of dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg plus Lidocaine 1 mg/kg in softening hemodynamic stress response and estimated quality of extubation in study groups. Materials and Methods: The patients in our study, one hundred and fifty of both gender, ASA class I &II patients, aged 20 - 50 years old subject to elective abdominal operations under general anesthesia were allocated into three equal groups. Anesthetic technique was standardized. Before extubation by 10 minutes, the patients in Group N, D, and DL have given 0.9% normal Saline intravenous bolus infusion, dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg and Dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg, respectively within a 10-minute period. Before complete extubation by 90 seconds, in the three groups by syringe ten cc volumes and at time of extubation, Group N and D patients received 0.9% normal Saline intravenous bolus infusion, but in Group DL received Lidocaine 1 mg/kg then extubation completed. Heart rate (HR), Diastolic BP (DBP), Systolic BP (SBP), and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) were noted at baseline, at the reverse, extubation, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 min and at the regular times after that for two hours. Extubation quality was assessed by extubation quality scale. Aldrete’s recovery score and Ramsay sedation score were also recorded and also any complications were noted and recorded. Results: All the hemodynamic parameters significantly elevated extubation and numerous periods of observation in the normal saline group than dexmedetomidine and dexmedetomidine plus Lidocaine group (p-value = 0.001). Response of tachycardia was seen in 41 (82%) in patients of N group, compared to 18 (36%) and 20 (40%) in D & DL group respectively (p = 0.001). Hypertensive response statistically significant noticed in 40 (80%) patients of N group, 9 (18%) of D group and 12 (24%) of DL group (p = 0.001). Tachycardia duration and the response of hypertension were significantly prolonged in the control group. As regards extubation quality, the three groups differed in D Groups (1.93 ± 0.57) and DL (1.51 ± 0.57) had decreased scores compared to group N (2.67 ± 0.48) modulating smoother extubation (p Conclusion: Low combined dose of (Dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg plus Lidocaine 1 mg/kg) IV was useful as much as Dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg IV in softening hemodynamic stress responses during emergence.展开更多

文摘Background:Sudden sensorineural hearing loss(SSNHL),often associated with tinnitus,significantly impacts individuals'quality of life.Current treatments,such as free drugs via intravenous or intratympanic(IT)administration of dexamethasone(DEX)and lidocaine,face limitations like low bioavailability and rapid drug clearance.To address these challenges,we developed a local co-delivery system combining DEX microcrystals(DEX MCs)and lidocaine-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA)non-spherical microparticles(LPNMs)for sustained drug release in the inner ear.Methods:DEX MCs and LPNMs were prepared using the traditional precipitation technique and double emulsion-solvent evaporation,respectively.After characterizing physicochemical properties and drug release kinetics,they were dispersed in sodium hyaluronate solution for IT injection,then in vivo pharmacokinetics and biocompatibility in guinea pigs were studied.Results:DEX MCs exhibited stable dissolution,while LPNMs provided sustained lidocaine release,reducing potential side effects.In vivo studies in guinea pigs demonstrated prolonged drug retention in the perilymph and improved pharmacokinetics.Histological evaluation confirmed the good biocompatibility of this combined delivery system,with no significant inner ear damage observed.Conclusion:This co-delivery system can be used as a depot for delivering both DEX and lidocaine to the inner ear and offers a promising approach for the synergistic treatment of SSNHL associated with tinnitus.

文摘BACKGROUND Ultrasound-guided peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)placement is vital for cancer therapy,but lidocaine infiltration faces limitations like puncture pain and vasospasm.AIM To assess the clinical efficacy of a no-pain intervention-combining compound lidocaine cream with warm compress-in reducing pain during ultrasound-guided PICC placement in cancer patients.METHODS A retrospective cohort study analyzed 88 cancer patients undergoing PICC placement(Shanghai Fourth People’s Hospital,2024).Patients were divided into control(lidocaine infiltration,n=44)and intervention(cream+warm compress,n=44)groups.Primary outcomes:Pain scores(numerical rating scale),procedural time,complications;secondary outcome:Satisfaction.RESULTS The intervention group showed significantly lower pain scores(1.2±0.4 vs 3.8±1.2,P=0.012)with comparable first-attempt success(95.5%vs 90.9%)and safety(P=0.672).Thermal activation of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 channel enhanced drug penetration,achieving anesthesia within 8-10 minutes.Patient satisfaction reached 97.7%.CONCLUSION The combination of compound lidocaine cream with warm compress significantly alleviates procedural pain and enhances patient satisfaction during ultrasound-guided PICC placement in cancer patients,supporting its clinical application.
文摘The effect of pH on the permeation of Lidocaine hydrochloride (LH) across excised rat skin was studied, the steady state flux (JSS) at different pH being determined using improved Valia-Chien diffusion cells. JSS increased substantially when pH was close to the pKa of LH. The profile of JSS versus pH showed an 慡?shaped curve. JSS of Lidocaine free base (LFB) was fourteen times that of LH. The pH of vehicle influences the permeation of LH significantly and should be considered as an important factor when a formulation is developed.

文摘Objective:To study the effects of Transient receptor potential cation channel,subfamily V,member 1(TRPV1) combined with lidocaine on status and apoptosis of U87-MG glioma cell line,and explore whether local anesthetic produces neurotoxicity by TRPVI.Methods:U87-MG cells were divided into control group,gene silencing group,empty vector group and TRPV gene up-rcgulation group.For cells in each group,flow cytometry was employed to detect the intracellular calcium ion concentration and mitochondrial membrane potential at different lime point from cellular perspective.Cell apoptosis of U87-MG was assayed by flow cytometry and MTT from a holistic perspective.Results:Calcium ion concentration increased along with time.The concentration in TRPV1 gene up-regulation group was significantly higher than those in other groups at each time point(P<0.05).After adding lidocaine.mitochondrial membrane potential in U87-MG significantly increased(P<0.05).This increasing trend in TRPV1 gene up-regulation group was more significant than other groups(P<0.05).while in TRPV1 gene silencing group,the trend significantly decreased(P<0.05).Flow cytometry result and MTT result both showed that cell apoptosis in each group significantly increased after lidocaine was added(P<0.05).This increasing trend in TRPV1 gene up-regulation group was more significant than other groups(P<0.05),while in TRPV1 gene silencing group,the trend significandy decreased(P<0.05).Moreover,apoptosis was more severe along with the increasing concentration of lidocaine(P<0.05).Conclusions:In this study,it was proved that lidocaine could dose-dependently induce the increase of intracellular calcium ion concentration,mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis in U87-MG glioma cell line.The up-regulation of TRPV1 enhanced cytotoxicity of lidocaine,which revealed the correlations between mem.Lidocaine might have increased intracellular calcium ion concentration by activating TRPVI gene and induced apoptosis of U87-GM glioma cell line by up-regulating mitochondrial membrane potential.
文摘Summary： To study the effect of of lidocaine and amiodarone on the transmural heterogeneity of ventricular repolarization in isolated rabbit hearts model of sustained global ischemia and to explore the mechanisms underlying the antiarrhythmic activity of lidocaine and amiodarone, rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups： control group, ischemia group, lidocaine group and amiodarone group. By the monophasic action potential （MAP） recording technique, MAPs of epicardium, midmyocardium and endocardium were simultaneously recorded across the left ventricular free wall in rabbit hearts perfused by low-flow ischemia （2. 5 mL/min） in Langendorff method to study the transmural dispcrsion of repolarization （TDR） and arrhythmic induced by ischemia.Our results showed that TDR of three myocardial layers in ischemia group were significantly lengthened after ischemia. TDR was increased from 17.5±3.9 ms to 31.2±4.6 ms at the time that concided with the onset of sustained ventricle arrhythmic. Amiodarone could decrease TDR, but lidocaine could increase TDR at initial ischemia, and no significant difference was found at other ischemia time points. 5 cases had ventriclar arrhythmia in ischemia group （62. 5%）, but no case in lidocaine group （P〈0.01） and only 1 case in amiodarone group had ventrilar arrhythmia （P〈 0.01）. No significant difference was found between amiodarone group and lidocaine group. It is concluded that TDR of of three myocardial layers increases significantly at ischemia and it is closely associated with development of ventricular arrhythmia, and amiodarone could decrease TDR, but lidocaine could increase TDR at initial ischemia and has no effects at other ischemia time points.

文摘Objective： To compare the effects of epidural anesthesia with 1.5% lidocaine and 0.5% ropivacaine on propofol requirements, the time to loss of consciousness （LOC）, effect-site propofol concentrations, and the hemodynamic variables during induction of general anesthesia guided by bispectral index （BIS） were studied. Methods： Forty-five patients were divided into three groups to receive epidurally administered saline （Group S）, 1.5% （w/w） lidocaine （Group L）, or 0,5% （w/w） ropivacaine （Group R） Propofol infusion was started to produce blood concentration of 4 lag/ml. Once the BIS value reached 40-50, endotracheal intubation was facilitated by 0.1 mg/kg vecuronium. Measurements included the time to LOC, effect-site propofol concentrations, total propofol dose, mean arterial blood pressure （MABP）, and heart rate （HR） at different study time points. Results： During induction of anesthesia, both Groups L and R were similar for the time to LOC, effect-site propofol concentrations, total propofol dose, MABP, HR, and BIS. The total doses of propofol administered until 1 min post-intubation were significantly less in patients of Groups R and L compared with Group S. MABP and HR were significantly lower following propofol induction compared with baseline values in the three groups, or MABP was significantly increased following intubation as compared with that prior to intubation in Group S but not in Groups R and L while HR was significantly increased following intubation in the three groups. Conclusion： Epidural anesthesia with 1.5% lidocaine and 0.5% ropivacaine has similar effects on the time to LOC, effect-site propofol concentrations, total propofol dose, and the hemodynamic variables during induction of general anesthesia.
文摘Objective： The relative preventative efficacy of amiodarone and lidocaine for ventricular fibrillation（VF） after release of an aortic cross-clamp（ACC） during open heart surgery has not been determined. This meta-analysis was designed to systematically evaluate the influence of amiodarone, lidocaine, or placebo on the incidence of VF after ACC. Methods： Prospective randomized controlled trials（RCTs） that compared the VF-preventative effects of amiodarone with lidocaine, or amiodarone or lidocaine with placebo were included. Pub Med, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched for relevant RCTs. Fixed or randomized effect models were applied according to the heterogeneity of the data from the selected studies. Results： We included eight RCTs in the analysis. Pooled results suggested that the preventative effects of amiodarone and lidocaine were comparable（relative risk（RR）=1.12, 95% confidence interval（CI）： 0.70 to 1.80, P=0.63）, but both were superior to the placebo（amiodarone, RR=0.71, 95% CI： 0.51 to 1.00, P=0.05; lidocaine, RR=0.63, 95% CI： 0.46 to 0.88, P=0.006）. The percentage of patients requiring electric defibrillation counter shocks（DCSs） did not differ significantly among patients administered amiodarone（RR=0.21, 95% CI： 0.04 to 1.19, P=0.08）, lidocaine（RR=2.44, 95% CI： 0.13 to 44.02, P=0.55）, or the placebo（RR=0.56, 95% CI： 0.25 to 1.25, P=0.16）. Conclusions： Amiodarone and lidocaine are comparably effective in preventing VF after ACC, but the percentage of patients who subsequently require DCSs does not differ among those administered amiodarone, lidocaine, or placebo.
文摘BACKGROUND Children are a unique patient population.Anesthesia for pediatric abdominal surgery has long been achieved mainly with intravenous amiodarone and propofol alone or combined with other anesthetics.The incidence of complications and postoperative adverse reactions is relatively high owing to the imperfect development of various protocols for children.Choosing the most appropriate anesthesia program is an important means of reducing adverse reactions.AIM To explore the clinical value of propofol combined with lidocaine-assisted anesthesia in pediatric surgery.METHODS A total of 120 children who underwent abdominal surgery at our hospital from January 2016 to March 2018 were selected and divided into groups A and B using the random number table method,with 60 patients in each group.Group B received ketamine for anesthesia,while group A received ketamine,propofol,and lidocaine.The pre-and postoperative heart rate(HR);mean arterial pressure(MAP);arterial oxygen saturation(SpO_(2));serum adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),interleukin-6(IL-6),and cortisol(Cor)levels;restlessness score during the recovery period[Paediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale(PAED)];and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The HR,MAP,and SpO_(2) Level at five minutes before initiating anesthesia were compared between groups A and B,and the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).At 10 and 20 minutes after anesthesia initiation,the HR and MAP were lower in group A compared with group B(P<0.05).The differences in preoperative serum ACTH,IL-6,and Cor levels between groups A and B were not statistically significant(P>0.05);however,the postoperative serum ACTH,IL-6,and Cor levels in group A were lower compared with group B(P<0.05).Furthermore,the visual analog scale scores of group A at 2 h and 8 h postoperative were lower than those in group B,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The mean PAED score in group A was lower than that in group B(P<0.05),and the incidence of restlessness in group A was 23.33%lower than that in group B(36.67%)(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions was lower in group A than in group B(6.25%vs 16.25%).CONCLUSION The anesthetic effect of propofol combined with lidocaine and ketamine in pediatric surgery was better than that of ketamine alone,and had less influence on hemodynamics and pediatric stress response indices,lower incidence of restlessness in the recovery period,and lower incidence of adverse reactions.

文摘AIM:To determine whether topical lidocaine benefits esophagogastroduoduenoscopy(EGD) by decreasing propofol dose necessary for sedation or procedurerelated complications.METHODS:The study was designed as a prospective,single centre,double blind,randomised clinical trial and was conducted in 2012 between January and May(NCT01489891).Consecutive patients undergoing EGD were randomly assigned to receive supplemental topical lidocaine(L;50 mg in an excipient solution which was applied as a spray to the oropharynx) or placebo(P;taste excipients solution without active substance,similarly delivered) prior to the standard propofol sedation procedure.The propofol was administered as a bolus intravenous(iv) dose,with patients in the L and P groups receiving initial doses based on the patient’s American Society of Anaesthesiologists(ASA) classification(ASAⅠ-Ⅱ:0.50-0.60 mg/kg;ASA Ⅲ-Ⅳ:0.25-0.35 mg/kg),followed by 10-20 mg iv dose every 30-60 s at the anaesthetist’s discretion.Vital signs,anthropometric measurements,amount of propofol administered,sedation level reached,examination time,and the subjective assessments of the endoscopist’s and anaesthetist’s satisfaction(based upon a four point Likert scale) were recorded.All statistical tests were performed by the Stata statistical software suite(Release 11,2009;StataCorp,LP,College Station,TX,United States).RESULTS:No significant differences were found between the groups treated with lidocaine or placebo in terms of total propofol dose(310.7 ± 139.2 mg/kg per minute vs 280.1 ± 87.7 mg/kg per minute,P = 0.15) or intraprocedural propofol dose(135.3 ± 151.7 mg/kg per minute vs 122.7 ± 96.5 mg/kg per minute,P = 0.58).Only when the L and P groups were analysed with the particular subgroups of female,【 65-year-old,and lower anaesthetic risk level(ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ) was a statistically significant difference found(L:336.5 ± 141.2 mg/kg per minute vs P:284.6 ± 91.2 mg/kg per minute,P = 0.03) for greater total propofol requirements).The total incidence of complications was also similar between the two groups,with the L group showing a complication rate of 32.2%(95%CI:21.6-45.0) and the P group showing a complication rate of 26.7%(95%CI:17.0-39.0).In addition,the use of lidocaine had no effect on the anaesthetist’s or endoscopist’s satisfaction with the procedure.Thus,the endoscopist’s satisfaction Likert assessments were equally distributed among the L and P groups:unsatisfactory,[L:6.8%(95%CI:2.2-15.5) vs P:0%(95%CI:0-4.8);neutral,L:10.1%(95%CI:4.2-19.9) vs P:15%(95%CI:7.6-25.7)];satisfactory,[L:25.4%(95%CI:10-29.6) vs P:18.3%(95%CI:15.5-37.6);and very satisfactory,L:57.6%(95%CI:54-77.7) vs P:66.6%(95%CI:44.8-69.7)].Likewise,the anaesthetist’s satisfaction Likert assessments regarding the ease of maintaining a patient at an optimum sedation level without agitation or modification of the projected sedation protocol were not affected by the application of lidocaine,as evidenced by the lack of significant differences between the scores for the placebo group:unsatisfactory,L:5.8%(95%CI:1.3-13.2) vs P:0%(95%CI:0-4.8);neutral,L:16.9%(95%CI:8.9-28.4) vs P:16.7%(95%CI:8.8-27.7);satisfactory,L:15.2%(95%CI:7.7-26.1) vs P:20.3%(95%CI:11.3-31.6);and very satisfactory,L:62.7%(95%CI:49.9-74.3) vs P:63.3%(95%CI:50.6-74.7).CONCLUSION:Topical pharyngeal anaesthesia is safe in EGD but does not reduce the necessary dose of propofol or improve the anaesthetist’s or endoscopist’s satisfaction with the procedure.

文摘In this research, copper oxide nanoparticles modified carbon paste electrode was developed for the voltammetric determination of lidocaine. The square wave voltammogram of lidocaine solution showed a well-defined peak between ＋0.5 and ＋1.5 V. Instrumental and chemical parameters influencing voltammetric response were optimized by both one at a time and Box–Behnken model of response surface methodology. The results revealed that there was no significant difference between two methods of optimization. The linear range was 1–2500 μmol L^-1（Ip= 0.11 C（LH）＋ 17.38, R^2= 0.999）. The LOD and LOQ based on three and ten times of the signal to noise（S/N） were 0.39 and 1.3 μmol L^-1（n = 10）,respectively. The precision of the method was assessed for 10 replicate square wave voltammetry（SWV）determinations each of 0.05, 0.5 and 1 μmol L^-1 of lidocaine showing relative standard deviations 4.1%,3.7% and 2.1%, respectively. The reliability of the proposed method was established by application of the method for the determination of lidocaine in two pharmaceutical preparations, namely injection and gel.
文摘AIM: To evaluate the effect of posterior lingual lidocaine swab on patient tolerance to esophagogastro-duodenoscopy, the ease of performance of the procedure, and to determine if such use will reduce the need for intravenous sedation. METHODS: Eighty patients undergoing diagnostic esophagogastroduodenoscopy in a tertiary care medical center were randomized to either lidocaine swab or spray. Intravenous meperidine and midazolam were given as needed during the procedure. RESULTS: Patients in the lidocaine swab group (SWG) tolerated the procedure better than those in the spray group (SPG) with a median tolerability score of 2 (1, 4) compared to 4 (2, 5) (P < 0.01). The endoscopists encountered less diffi culty performing the proceduresin the SWG with lower median difficulty scores of 1 (1, 5) compared to 4 (1, 5) in the SPG (P < 0.01). In addition, the need for intravenous sedation was also lower in the SWG compared to the SPG with fewer patients requiring intravenous sedation (13/40 patients vs 38/40 patients, respectively, P < 0.01). The patients in the SWG were more satisfi ed with the mode of local anesthesia they received as compared to the SPG. In addition, the endoscopists were happier with the use of lidocaine swab. CONCLUSION: The use of a posterior lingual lidocaine swab in esophagogastroduodenoscopy improves patient comfort and tolerance and endoscopist satisfaction and decreases the need for intravenous sedation.

文摘Following subarachnoid hemorrhage, vasoconstrictor substances, cellular apoptosis, blood coagulation, and vascular cell proliferation affect the onset of cerebral vasospasm. Previous studies from our laboratory have revealed that injection of lidocaine （2 mg） into the cisterna magna reduces cerebral vasospasm and nerve functional impairment in an animal model of subarachnoid hemorrhage. The present study determined the optimal lidocaine dose for vasospasm and brain injury by injecting different doses of lidocaine into the cisterna magna in a rabbit model of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Results showed that endothelin, tumor necrosis factor-a, and interleukin-6 levels significantly increased in plasma, and calcitonin gene-related peptide levels significantly decreased in plasma （P 〈 0.05）. The number of neurons was decreased, the number of cells expressing c-Fos increased in the hippocampus, and cross-sections and diameters of basilar arteries were reduced （P 〈 0.05）. These changes significantly improved following injection of lidocaine （1,2, 4, and 6 mg） into the cisterna magna. A dose of 6 mg lidocaine into the cisterna magna resulted in optimal effects on cerebral vasospasm and brain injury following subarachnoid hemorrhage.
文摘The mechanisms of epidural-associated fever remain incompletely understood [1-3]. We propose that action of local anesthetic on TPRV1. The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), also known as the capsaicin receptor and the vanilloid receptor can explain this effect and explain mechanism of burning sensation on local anesthetic injected subcutaneously or intramuscular. Role of TRPV1 receptor was not discussed previously in Obstetric Anesthesia literature. Based on available data, we propose that Local Anesthetics work as agonist/antagonist on TPRV1 receptors. Antagonist action may cause hyperthermia through modifying thermoregulation [4], agonist action may cause hyperthermia thru release of IL-6 and other mediators of inflammation [5-10]. Agonist action may explain burning sensation on injection of Local Anesthetics. Burning sensation can be diminished by increasing pH of Local Anesthetic solution, because vanillin receptors are stimulated by acidification through lower pH [11,12].

文摘In the present study,we aimed to probe the possibility of using mixed poloxamers as carriers to prepare ternary solid dispersion(SD)that facilitated solubility and dissolution rate of the poorly water soluble drug and compare with binary SD with single poloxamer.Lidocaine(LIC)was selected as a model drug,and poloxamer 188(P188)and poloxamer 407(P407)were utilized as single and mixed carriers.Depending on DSC and the dissolution testing,the appropriate ratio of SD prepared by melting method was optimized.Ternary and binary SD was characterized by DSC,XRD,SEM and FTIR.In vitro dissolution study,phase solubility study and saturated solubility study were performed to clarify solubilization from apparent phenomena and inherent reason.Moreover,stability study under different relative humidity(RH)was investigated.Physical characterizations of binary and ternary SD exhibited the formation of eutectic mixture and the presence of molecular interaction.Compared with the pure LIC,the dissolution rate and solubility of LIC in binary and ternary SDs were enhanced.The phase solubility study revealed an AL-type curve.Furthermore,the stability test indicated that ternary and binary SD was stable.The results of this study demonstrated that SD with mixed poloxamers could improve dissolution rate and solubility of poorly water-soluble drug.
文摘Objective：To evaluate the effect of diltiazem and lidocaine on arterial pressure or heart rate and the quality of extubation in patients undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty. Methods： Sixty patients were randomly divided into 4 groups： In the control group patients were given saline; in the lidocaine group patients were given 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine ; in the diltiazem group patients were given 0. 2 mg/kg diltiazem; and in the lidocaine plus diltiazem group patients were given 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine and 0. 2 mg/kg diltiazem. These drugs were given 2 rain before tracheal extuhation. Values for SBP, DBP, and HR were recorded, on arriving at the operating room, immediately at the end of the surgery, at the time of injection of the study drugs, at tracheal extubation, at 1 min and 5 min after extubation. The quality of extubation according to the Sebel＇s grading scale were compared among the 4 groups. Results：During extubation in the control group HR, SBP and DBP increased significantly when compared to baseline levels. Both lidocaine （1.0 mg/kg） and diltiazem （0. 2 mg/kg） successfully alleviated these increases. The suppressive effect of diltiazem was greater than that of lidocaine. The combinative use of the two drugs minimized the increases. The administration of lidocaine significantly suppressed bucking or coughing compared with the other groups. Conclusions： The pressor responses and tachycardia occurring in patients with uvulopalatopharyngoplasty during emergence from anesthesia and tracheal extubation, can be easily blocked by a bolus dose of 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine, 0. 2 mg/kg diltiazem or the comhinative use of the two drugs. And the concurrent use of lidocaine and diltiazem alleviated the hemodynamic changes more obviously.
文摘BACKGROUND Post-extubation cough is a common phenomenon in surgical patients undergoing general anesthesia,which can lead to potentially dangerous complications.In this meta-analysis,we evaluated the efficacy and safety of intracuff alkalinized lidocaine in patients with tracheal intubation to prevent cough and other airway complications during the perioperative period.AIM To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of intracuff alkalinized lidocaine for the prevention of postoperative airway complications.METHODS PubMed,Embase,Cochrane,and Web of Science were searched for randomized controlled trials(RCTs)that compared intracuff alkalinized lidocaine to placebo.We used risk-of-bias assessment to assess the RCTs,and the quality of evidence was assessed using the grading of recommendations,assessment,development,and evaluations.RESULTS Twelve randomized trials(1175 patients)were analyzed.Meta-analysis showed that intracuff alkalinized lidocaine was associated with less cough compared to that produced by placebo[risk ratio(RR):0.38;95%confidence interval(CI):0.23-0.63].Similarly,intracuff alkalinized lidocaine was more effective than the control in reducing postoperative sore throat at 24 h(RR:0.19;95%CI:0.09-0.41)and postoperative hoarseness(RR:0.38;95%CI:0.21-0.69).CONCLUSION Intracuff alkalinized lidocaine is an effective adjuvant that can decrease airway complications,such as coughing,hoarseness,and sore throat.
文摘Objective:To compare the effect of ketamine,lidocaine,acetaminophen,and dexmedetomidine combined with morphine patient-controlled analgesia for opium addicts after tibial fracture surgery.Methods:This double-blind clinical trial included opium-addicted patients undergoing tibia fracture surgery.Patients were recruited and randomized to four different groups including the ketamine group,the lidocaine group,the acetaminophen group,and the dexmedetomidine group.The hemodynamic parameters such as heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure,and arterial SaO2,alongside visual analog scale pain scores,sedation assessed by Ramsay score,nausea and vomiting,and opioid use were recorded and compared among the four groups.Results:This study included 140 patients,aged 37(32,41)years,with 92 males and 48 females,and each group had 35 patients.Dexmedetomidine-sedated subjects had the lowest blood pressure from 1 to 24 h after surgery,decreased HR at 12 and 24 h after surgery,and more satisfactory sedation(P<0.05).Notwithstanding no significant difference was noted in the pain scores,or nausea and vomiting among the groups(P>0.05).Conclusions:Dexmedetomidine has a better sedation effect compared to ketamine,lidocaine,and acetaminophen for pain control,but the final choice hinges on the patients’physical condition and the anesthesiologist's preference.Clinical registration:It is registered in Iranian Registry Clinical Trial by code IRCT20141209020258N146.
文摘Background: Tracheal extubation is related to many side effects of hemodynamic, especially for patients with comorbid states. The study compared the validity of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg and low combination dose of dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg plus Lidocaine 1 mg/kg in softening hemodynamic stress response and estimated quality of extubation in study groups. Materials and Methods: The patients in our study, one hundred and fifty of both gender, ASA class I &II patients, aged 20 - 50 years old subject to elective abdominal operations under general anesthesia were allocated into three equal groups. Anesthetic technique was standardized. Before extubation by 10 minutes, the patients in Group N, D, and DL have given 0.9% normal Saline intravenous bolus infusion, dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg and Dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg, respectively within a 10-minute period. Before complete extubation by 90 seconds, in the three groups by syringe ten cc volumes and at time of extubation, Group N and D patients received 0.9% normal Saline intravenous bolus infusion, but in Group DL received Lidocaine 1 mg/kg then extubation completed. Heart rate (HR), Diastolic BP (DBP), Systolic BP (SBP), and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) were noted at baseline, at the reverse, extubation, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 min and at the regular times after that for two hours. Extubation quality was assessed by extubation quality scale. Aldrete’s recovery score and Ramsay sedation score were also recorded and also any complications were noted and recorded. Results: All the hemodynamic parameters significantly elevated extubation and numerous periods of observation in the normal saline group than dexmedetomidine and dexmedetomidine plus Lidocaine group (p-value = 0.001). Response of tachycardia was seen in 41 (82%) in patients of N group, compared to 18 (36%) and 20 (40%) in D & DL group respectively (p = 0.001). Hypertensive response statistically significant noticed in 40 (80%) patients of N group, 9 (18%) of D group and 12 (24%) of DL group (p = 0.001). Tachycardia duration and the response of hypertension were significantly prolonged in the control group. As regards extubation quality, the three groups differed in D Groups (1.93 ± 0.57) and DL (1.51 ± 0.57) had decreased scores compared to group N (2.67 ± 0.48) modulating smoother extubation (p Conclusion: Low combined dose of (Dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg plus Lidocaine 1 mg/kg) IV was useful as much as Dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg IV in softening hemodynamic stress responses during emergence.
