A widely used local anesthetic agent.
Drugs that block nerve conduction when applied locally to nerve tissue in appropriate concentrations. They act on any part of the nervous system and on every type of nerve fiber. In contact with a nerve trunk, these anesthetics can cause both sensory and motor paralysis in the innervated area. Their action is completely reversible. (From Gilman AG, et. al., Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed) Nearly all local anesthetics act by reducing the tendency of voltage-dependent sodium channels to activate.
Procedure in which an anesthetic is injected directly into the spinal cord.

Dose-response effects of spinal neostigmine added to bupivacaine spinal anesthesia in volunteers. (1/1144)

BACKGROUND: Intrathecal adjuncts often are used to enhance small-dose spinal bupivacaine for ambulatory anesthesia. Neostigmine is a novel spinal analgesic that could be a useful adjunct, but no data exist to assess the effects of neostigmine on small-dose bupivacaine spinal anesthesia. METHODS: Eighteen volunteers received two bupivacaine spinal anesthetics (7.5 mg) in a randomized, double-blinded, crossover design. Dextrose, 5% (1 ml), was added to one spinal infusion and 6.25, 12.5, or 50 microg neostigmine in dextrose, 5%, was added to the other spinal. Sensory block was assessed with pinprick; by the duration of tolerance to electric stimulation equivalent to surgical incision at the pubis, knee, and ankle; and by the duration of tolerance to thigh tourniquet. Motor block at the quadriceps was assessed with surface electromyography. Side effects (nausea, vomiting, pruritus, and sedation) were noted. Hemodynamic and respiratory parameters were recorded every 5 min. Dose-response relations were assessed with analysis of variance, paired t tests, or Spearman rank correlation. RESULTS: The addition of 50 microg neostigmine significantly increased the duration of sensory and motor block and the time until discharge criteria were achieved. The addition of neostigmine produced dose-dependent nausea (33-67%) and vomiting (17-50%). Neostigmine at these doses had no effect on hemodynamic or respiratory parameters. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of 50 microg neostigmine prolonged the duration of sensory and motor block. However, high incidences of side effects and delayed recovery from anesthesia with the addition of 6.25 to 50 microg neostigmine may limit the clinical use of these doses for outpatient spinal anesthesia.  (+info)

A double-blind comparison of 0.125% ropivacaine with sufentanil and 0.125% bupivacaine with sufentanil for epidural labor analgesia. (2/1144)

BACKGROUND: This study intends to evaluate the benefits of the administration of intermittent bolus doses of ropivacaine (0.125%) compared with bupivacaine (0.125%) after addition of sufentanil for analgesia during labor. METHODS: One hundred thirty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status 1 or 2 parturients were studied. The 90 initial patients were assigned randomly to receive 10 ml bupivacaine, 0.125%, plus 7.5 microg sufentanil (initial bupivacaine 0.125% group) or ropivacaine, 0.125%, plus 7.5 microg sufentanil (ropivacaine 0.125% group). Forty additional patients were recruited and received 0.125% bupivacaine plus 7.5 microg sufentanil (additional bupivacaine 0.125% group) or 0.100% bupivacaine plus 7.5 microg sufentanil (additional bupivacaine 0.100% group). The duration of analgesia, visual analogue scores for pain, motor blockade (using a six-point modified Bromage scale), patient satisfaction scores, nausea, pruritus, heart rate, and blood pressure were recorded. RESULTS: Bupivacaine 0.125% and ropivacaine 0.125% coadministered with sufentanil provided rapid and complete analgesia. Onset of analgesia occurred after +/-15 min and lasted +/-90 min. After the third epidural injection, patients in the ropivacaine group experienced significantly less severe motor blockade than patients in the initial bupivacaine 0.125% group. At this point, 93% of the patients in the ropivacaine group were free from motor impairment versus 66% in the bupivacaine group (P<0.05). Comparable levels of motor blockade were obtained in both additional groups. Patients' evaluation of their analgesia was worst in the bupivacaine 0.100% group. CONCLUSIONS: Ropivacaine 0.125% with sufentanil affords reliable analgesia with minimal motor blockade.  (+info)

Interaction of bupivacaine and tetracaine with the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release channel of skeletal and cardiac muscles. (3/1144)

BACKGROUND: Although various local anesthetics can cause histologic damage to skeletal muscle when injected intramuscularly, bupivacaine appears to have an exceptionally high rate of myotoxicity. Research has suggested that an effect of bupivacaine on sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release is involved in its myotoxicity, but direct evidence is lacking. Furthermore, it is not known whether the toxicity depends on the unique chemical characteristics of bupivacaine and whether the toxicity is found only in skeletal muscle. METHODS: The authors studied the effects of bupivacaine and the similarly lipid-soluble local anesthetic, tetracaine, on the Ca2+ release channel-ryanodine receptor of sarcoplasmic reticulum in swine skeletal and cardiac muscle. [3H]Ryanodine binding was used to measure the activity of the Ca2+ release channel-ryanodine receptors in microsomes of both muscles. RESULTS: Bupivacaine enhanced (by two times at 5 mM) and inhibited (66% inhibition at 10 mM) [3H]ryanodine binding to skeletal muscle microsomes. In contrast, only inhibitory effects were observed with cardiac microsomes (about 3 mM for half-maximal inhibition). Tetracaine, which inhibits [3H]ryanodine binding to skeletal muscle microsomes, also inhibited [3H]ryanodine binding to cardiac muscle microsomes (half-maximal inhibition at 99 microM). CONCLUSIONS: Bupivacaine's ability to enhance Ca2+ release channel-ryanodine receptor activity of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum most likely contributes to the myotoxicity of this local anesthetic. Thus, the pronounced myotoxicity of bupivacaine may be the result of this specific effect on Ca2+ release channel-ryanodine receptor superimposed on a nonspecific action on lipid bilayers to increase the Ca2+ permeability of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes, an effect shared by all local anesthetics. The specific action of tetracaine to inhibit Ca2+ release channel-ryanodine receptor activity may in part counterbalance the nonspecific action, resulting in moderate myotoxicity.  (+info)

Effect of i.v. ketamine in combination with epidural bupivacaine or epidural morphine on postoperative pain and wound tenderness after renal surgery. (4/1144)

We studied 60 patients undergoing operation on the kidney with combined general and epidural anaesthesia, in a double-blind, randomized, controlled study. Patients were allocated to receive a preoperative bolus dose of ketamine 10 mg i.v., followed by an i.v. infusion of ketamine 10 mg h-1 for 48 h after operation, or placebo. During the first 24 h after surgery, all patients received 4 ml h-1 of epidural bupivacaine 2.5 mg ml-1. From 24 to 48 h after operation, patients received epidural morphine 0.2 mg h-1 preceded by a bolus dose of 2 mg. In addition, patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with i.v. morphine (2.5 mg, lockout time 15 min) was offered from 0 to 48 h after operation. Patients who received ketamine felt significantly more sedated at 0-24 h, but not at 24-48 h after operation, compared with patients who received placebo (P = 0.002 and P = 0.127, respectively). There were no significant differences in pain (VAS) at rest, during mobilization or cough, PCA morphine consumption, sensory block to pinprick, pressure pain detection threshold assessed with an algometer, touch and pain detection thresholds assessed with von Frey hairs, peak flow or side effects other than sedation. The power of detecting a reduction in VAS scores of 20 mm in our study was 80% at the 5% significance level. We conclude that we were unable to demonstrate an (additive) analgesic or opioid sparing effect of ketamine 10 mg h-1 i.v. combined with epidural bupivacaine at 0-24 h, or epidural morphine at 24-48 h after renal surgery.  (+info)

Neonatal outcome and mode of delivery after epidural analgesia for labour with ropivacaine and bupivacaine: a prospective meta-analysis. (5/1144)

In this prospective meta-analysis, we have evaluated the effect of epidural analgesia with ropivacaine for pain in labour on neonatal outcome and mode of delivery compared with bupivacaine. In six randomized, double-blind studies, 403 labouring women, primigravidae and multiparae, received epidural analgesia with ropivacaine or bupivacaine 2.5 mg ml-1. The drugs were administered as intermittent boluses in four studies and by continuous infusion in two. Apgar scores, neurological and adaptive capacity scores (NACS), degree of motor block and mode of delivery were recorded. The studies were designed prospectively to fit meta-analysis of the pooled results. Results showed similar pain relief and consumption of the two drugs. In the vaginally delivered neonates, NACS scores were approximately equal for both groups at 2 h, but at 24 h there were fewer infants with NACS less than 35 in the ropivacaine compared with the bupivacaine group (2.8% vs 7.6%; P < 0.05). Spontaneous vaginal deliveries occurred more frequently overall with ropivacaine than with bupivacaine (58% vs 49%; P < 0.05) and instrumental deliveries (forceps and vacuum extraction) less frequently (27% vs 40%; P < 0.01), while the frequency of Caesarean section was similar between groups. The intensity of motor block was lower with ropivacaine. There were no significant differences in adverse events.  (+info)

Incidence of bradycardia during recovery from spinal anaesthesia: influence of patient position. (6/1144)

We administered 0.5% plain bupivacaine 4 ml intrathecally (L2-3 or L3-4) in three groups of 20 patients, according to the position in which they were nursed in the post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU): supine horizontal, 30 degrees Trendelenburg or hammock position (trunk and legs 30 degrees elevated). Patients were observed until anaesthesia descended to less than S1. The incidence of severe bradycardia (heart rate < 50 beat min-1) in the PACU was significantly higher in patients in the Trendelenburg position (60%) than in the horizontal (20%, P < 0.01) or hammock (10%, P < 0.005) position. After 90 min, following admission to the PACU, only patients in the hammock position did not have severe bradycardia. In this late phase, the incidence of severe bradycardia in the Trendelenburg group was 35% (P < 0.005) and 10% in patients in the supine horizontal position. In four patients, severe bradycardia first occurred later than 90 min after admission to the PACU. The latest occurrence of severe bradycardia was recorded 320 min after admission to the PACU. We conclude that for recovery from spinal anaesthesia, the Trendelenburg position should not be used and the hammock position is preferred.  (+info)

Balanced pre-emptive analgesia: does it work? A double-blind, controlled study in bilaterally symmetrical oral surgery. (7/1144)

We studied 32 patients undergoing bilateral symmetrical lower third molar surgery under general anaesthesia to determine if the combined effects of pre-emptive local anaesthetic block using 0.5% bupivacaine, together with i.v. tenoxicam and alfentanil had any benefits over postoperative administration. Patients acted as their own controls and were allocated randomly to have surgery start on one side, the second side always being the pre-emptive side. Difference in pain intensity between the two sides was determined using visual analogue scales completed by each individual at 6 h, and at 1, 3 and 6 days after operation. A long-form McGill pain questionnaire was also used to assess difference in pain intensity between the two sides on the morning after surgery. There was no significant difference in pain intensity at any time after surgery. Our findings indicate that the combined use of pre-emptive analgesia from 0.5% bupivacaine, tenoxicam and alfentanil did not reduce postoperative pain intensity in patients undergoing molar exodontia.  (+info)

Relative analgesic potencies of ropivacaine and bupivacaine for epidural analgesia in labor: implications for therapeutic indexes. (8/1144)

BACKGROUND: The minimum local analgesic concentration (MLAC) has been defined as the median effective local analgesic concentration in a 20-ml volume for epidural analgesia in the first stage of labor. The aim of this study was to assess the relative analgesic potencies of epidural bupivacaine and ropivacaine by determining their respective minimum local analgesic concentrations. METHODS: Seventy-three parturients at < or = 7 cm cervical dilation who requested epidural analgesia were allocated to one of two groups in this double-blinded, randomized, prospective study. After a lumbar epidural catheter was placed, 20 ml of the test solution was given, either ropivacaine (n = 34) or bupivacaine (n = 39). The concentration of local anesthetic was determined by the response of the previous patient in that group to a higher or lower concentration using up-down sequential allocation. Analgesic efficacy was assessed using 100-mm visual analog pain scores with < or = 10 mm within 30 min defined as effective. An effective result directed a 0.01% wt/vol decrement for the next patient. An ineffective result directed a 0.01% wt/vol increment. RESULTS: The minimum local analgesic concentration of ropivacaine was 0.111% wt/vol (95% confidence interval, 0.100-0.122), and the minimum local analgesic concentration of bupivacaine was 0.067% wt/vol (95% confidence interval, 0.052-0.082). Ropivacaine was significantly less potent than bupivacaine, with a potency ratio of 0.6 (95% confidence interval, 0.49-0.74). No difference in motor effects was observed. CONCLUSION: Ropivacaine was significantly less potent than bupivacaine for epidural analgesia in the first stage of labor.  (+info)

Background and Aims: The effect of local anesthetics on myometrial contractility during labor analgesia is debatable. We aimed to compare the effects of bupivacaine and levobupivacaine on rat uterine contractility in an in vivo setting. Methods: Electrical activities of 40 pregnant rat uteruses were recorded on electrohysterogram after dividing the rats into bupivacaine and levobupivacaine groups. Uterine contraction frequencies were recorded at each 5-min interval. The first 5-min recording was considered the control, which was immediately followed by intramyometrial administration of either bupivacaine or levobupivacaine. The recordings were continued for 30 min. The changes in frequencies at each time interval of the groups were compared with each other and the control recording. Results: The frequencies from both groups at each interval were lower than the control values, but not different between the groups. The frequencies of the bupivacaine group during the 5-10 min and 10-15 min ...
Background: Vibrio fluvialis is an emerging zoonotic pathogen that its antibiotic-resistant strains are rapidly expanding. Discovering new antibacterial agents is one way to control it.Aims and Objectives: In this research, inhibitory potentials of glycine, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (NPs), and some synthesized thiazole, imidazolidine-2-thione, and tetrahydropyrimidine-2-thione derivatives were studied against V. 﫿uvialis in an in vitro manner.Materials and Methods: Thiazoles were prepared through Hantzsch reaction. Cyclic thioureas were synthesized from the reaction of diaminoalkanes and carbon disulfde. MgO NPs were created in 23.7-25.7nm by sol-gel processing. Antibacterial properties of all compounds as inhibition zone diameter, the minimum inhibitory concentration, and the minimum bactericidal concentration values were assessed through both disk diffusion and broth microdilution methods.Results: No inhibitory activity on V. 﫿uvialis was observed with MgO NPs and glycine. Among ...
Background: Spinal anaesthesia is the fastest and most reliable form of regional anaesthesia. Additions of intrathecaly adjuvants are useful for prolonging the spinal anaesthesia effects.Subjects and Methods:The Patients were divided in three groups; Group C (control group) = received 15 mg (3 ml) of hyperbaric bupivacaine intrathecaly. Group D = received 15 mg (3 ml) of hyperbaric bupivacaine plus 4μgDexmedetomidine intrathecally. Group F = received Hyperbaric Bupivacaine 15mg (3ml) plus 25μg fentanylintrathecally.Results: For the total duration of sensory block p- value is 0.000003, which is less than 0.05 (α) and is highly significant. From the above p - value and scheffe post hoc test we conclude that the Bupivacaine + Dexmedetomidine has prolonged duration of sensory block as compared to bupivacaine alone and in combination with fentanyl. For the motor block p- value is 0.000000 and is less than 0.05 (α). It is highly significant. For the demand of Analgesic p-value is 0.0000001 and is ...
Case pain visual analog score persisted above 10 mm, patient was rejected and the same bupivacaines concentration was administered to the next patient.. Bupivacaines minimum analgesic concentration was calculated by Massey and Dixons formula 8.. Upper sensory block level and Bromage scores were compared between effective and ineffective concentrations by Mann-Whitney test. Significance level was established to 5%.. RESULTS. Demographics data of both samples are shown in table I.. Study I. Figure 1 shows the responses to different bupivacaine concentrations. Bupivacaines MAC-LA could not be calculated because data did not meet essential Massey and Dixon formulas requirements. There were 6 effective responses, 15 ineffective and 7 rejections. Mean bupivacaine concentration in this sample was 0.18% ±0.05%. Mean effective bupivacaine concentration was 0.19% ±0.07% and mean ineffective concentration was 0.18% ±0.055% (p,0.05). Median pain visual analog score (extremes) before bupivacaine ...
Background-This study was designed to evaluate effect of adding 25 μg of fentanyl to 0.5% intrathecal bupivacaine for elective caesarean section. Methods- The study was conducted on 40 ASA I & II women posted for elective caesarean section. Patients were randomized into two groups and lumbar subarachnoid block performed with bupivacaine and fentanyl, or bupivacaine alone. The time of onset , upper level of block, duration of sensory and motor block, systolic blood pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate were recorded and analysed. Results- It was observed that fall in blood pressure and sedation showed significant differences between the groups. None of the other variables differed. Conclusion- Addition of fentanyl to bupivacaine resulted in faster onset of action and effective spinal anaesthesia with a lower dose of bupivacaine. The duration of block was similar in both groups. The most striking feature was the greater hemodynamic stability with the addition of fentanyl.. ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - A prospective double-blind randomised controlled trial of intraoperative pelvic instillation with bupivacaine for management of pain following laparoscopy and dye. AU - Sripada, Sreebala. AU - Roy, S.. AU - Mathur, M.. AU - Hamilton, M. AU - Cranfield, K.. AU - Bhattacharya, Siladitya. PY - 2006. Y1 - 2006. N2 - The aim of this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine following laparoscopy and dye test. Women received either 15 ml of 0.9% saline (n=42) or 15 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine (n=43), which was instilled intraperitoneally. Pain and nausea scores were recorded on a visual analogue scale (VAS). Pain perception was no different in the bupivacaine group compared with the control group with median values of VAS at 2 hours (18, 19; P=0.8), 6 hours (21, 22; P=0.5), 12 hours (19, 25; P=0.8), 24 hours (27, 27; P=0.9) and 48 hours (21, 13; P=0.26). Women in the bupivacaine group were less ...
The aim of this study is to measure the effects of bupivacaine administered via epidural catheters on indices of motor blockade ascertained during the second stage of labor. This is a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial designed to address the primary research question: Does bupivacaine lengthen the second stage of labor? The secondary research question is: Is there other evidence of motor blockade attributable to bupivacaine during the second stage of labor?. The investigators know from prior studies that the length of the second stage in nulliparous women delivered at Parkland Hospital without epidural analgesia is 28 minutes. The investigators hypothesize in this now proposed study that epidural analgesia with bupivacaine will significantly increase this baseline from 28 minutes to 37 minutes or more (a 33% increase) thus implicating motor blockade. Baseline data for the Bromage and Breen scores during the second stage as well as the uterine contractility data are not available as ...
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate patient outcomes following liposomal bupivacaine and elastomeric bupivacaine pump use from January through June 2013. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate 24-hour postoperative opioid use (in morphine equivalents).. RESULTS: Sixty-seven liposomal bupivacaine and 262 elastomeric bupivacaine pump patients were included. Significant between-group differences were seen in American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status, patient-controlled analgesia use, postoperative nonopioid use, and surgical procedure. On univariate analysis, liposomal bupivacaine-in comparison with elastomeric bupivacaine pump -was associated with reduced median (interquartile range, IQR) 24-hour postoperative opioid use (33.0 mg morphine equivalents [IQR, 19.0-80.4 mg morphine equivalents] versus 70.4 mg morphine equivalents [IQR, 37.1-115.4 mg morphine equivalents], p , 0.001) and median 72-hour postoperative opioid use (61.3 mg morphine ...
Duration of analgesia, sensory and motor blockade and intra operative hemodynamic changes caused by intrathecal bupivacaine, bupivacaine plus clonidine and bupivacaine plus dexmedetomidine in spinal anesthesia: prospective, comparative study
The aim of this study was to determine the onset and offset of antinociception after sciatic (ScN) and femoral (FN) nerve blocks. Six healthy adult cats (4.8±1.3years; 4.3±0.4 kg) were included in a randomised, crossover, blinded and controlled study. Following sedation with dexmedetomidine (25 µg/kg, intramuscular), each ScN and FN injection was performed using 0.1 ml/kg of saline (CONTROL), bupivacaine (0.46 per cent, 0.46 mg/kg; BUPI), bupivacaine and dexmedetomidine (1 µg/kg; BUPI-DEX) or bupivacaine and buprenorphine (2.5 µg/kg; BUPI-BUPRE). Atipamezole (250 µg/kg) was administered after injections. Paw withdrawal thresholds (PWT) and motor blockade were evaluated before sedation and up to 24 hours. The PWT were significantly increased at half an hour in CONTROL, from two to four hours in BUPI and BUPI-DEX when compared with baseline. Motor blockade was observed between one and three hours in treatments using bupivacaine. Ability to walk was significantly impaired in BUPI at half an ...
Patients eligible for inclusion in the study will be age 8 to 95 years and have an eye deviation (strabismus) that is potentially subject to surgical correction.. The eye alignment will be measured. The eye muscles will be measured by MRI. The eye will be anesthetized by eye drops. One or more eye muscles will be injected with bupivacaine. Botox® will be injected into the antagonist muscle in some cases to increase the effect of the bupivacaine.. Data on the strabismus deviation, any side effects of the drug injection, and the eye muscles as measured by MRI, will be recorded at intervals after injection. These data will be compared with the like measurements taken before injection.. The primary outcome will be the eye alignment change at 180 days. A secondary outcome will be the change in muscle size, strength, or stiffness.. For large strabismus deviations not fully corrected by a first injection, a second injection can be made. Follow-up alignment and muscle measurements will be as for the ...
Introduction: Continuous research were undertaken in past to see the effect of anesthetic agent with adjuvant agents to increase their effect. The addition of adjuvant substances as clonidine, Dexmedetomidine, tramadol, midazolam, opioids, adenosine, to the local anesthetic drugs in TAPB and their efficiency have been studied. Hence the aim of the present study was to check the effect of Bupivacaine alone and Bupivicaine plus Dexamethasone in hernia block.Material & Methods: The total of 60 patients with age range from 30 to 60 years was included in the study. All the 60 patients were divided in to two groups, with 30 patients in each group.

Levobupivacaine (rINN) /liːvoʊbjuːˈpɪvəkeɪn/ is a local anaesthetic drug belonging to the amino amide group. It is the S-enantiomer of bupivacaine. Levobupivacaine hydrochloride is commonly marketed by AbbVie under the trade name Chirocaine. Compared to bupivacaine, levobupivacaine is associated with less vasodilation and has a longer duration of action. It is approximately 13 percent less potent (by molarity) than racemic bupivacaine and has a longer motor block onset time. Levobupivacaine is indicated for local anaesthesia including infiltration, nerve block, ophthalmic, epidural and intrathecal anaesthesia in adults; and infiltration analgesia in children. Levobupivacaine is contraindicated for IV regional anaesthesia (IVRA). Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are rare when it is administered correctly. Most ADRs relate to administration technique (resulting in systemic exposure) or pharmacological effects of anesthesia, however allergic reactions can rarely occur. Systemic exposure to ...
Determination of whether bupivacaine enantiomers block Na+ channels differently in the rested, activated, and inactivated channel states may result in a better understanding of their cardiodepressant effects. In the present study, both enantiomers of bupivacaine induced very limited tonic block measured as the reduction of INa amplitude during the first pulse after a long rest period. The amount of block measured from the reduction of peak current reflects both the rested-state block and the activated (open)-state interaction between the Na+ channel and the drug that develops during the depolarizing step before reaching peak current.18 Although tonic block is not necessarily an accurate measure of drug binding to rested Na+ channels, the observed low level indicates that both enantiomers must exhibit a low affinity for the rested state of the Na+ channel. Moreover, the interaction of bupivacaine enantiomers with the rested state of the Na+ channel was not stereoselective. Similar results were ...

HTX-011, which utilizes our proprietary Biochronomer® drug delivery technology, is under investigation in Phase 3 clinical studies as a long-acting formulation of the local anesthetic bupivacaine in a fixed-dose combination with the anti-inflammatory meloxicam for the prevention of post-operative pain. By delivering sustained levels of both a potent anesthetic and an anti-inflammatory agent directly to the site of tissue injury, HTX-011 was designed to deliver superior pain relief while potentially reducing the need for systemically administered pain medications such as opioids, which carry the risks of harmful side effects, abuse, and addiction.. HTX-011 is the first long-acting anesthetic that is designed to address both post-operative pain and accompanying inflammation by combining the local anesthetic bupivacaine and the anti-inflammatory meloxicam in a single administration. Targeting both pain and inflammation has allowed HTX-011 to demonstrate an advantage over current standard of care ...
Manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2) is a key enzyme to scavenge free radical superoxide in the mitochondrion. SOD2 deficiency leads to oxidative injury in cells. Bupivacaine, a local anesthetic commonly used in clinic, could induce neurotoxic injury via oxidative stress. The role and the mechanism of SOD2 regulation in bupivacaine-induced oxidative stress remains unclear. Here, bupivacaine was used to treat Sprague-Dawley rats with intrathecal injection and culture human neuroblastoma cells for developing vivo injury model and vitro injury model. The results showed that bupivacaine caused the over-production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS), the activation of C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and the elevation of SOD2 transcription. Decrease of mtROS with N-acetyl-L-cysteine attenuated the activation of JNK and the increase of SOD2 transcription. Inhibition of JNK signaling with a small interfering RNA (siRNA) or with sp600125 down-regulated the increase of SOD2 transcription. SOD2 gene

Background Ropivacaine is a new amide local anesthetic, having therapeutic properties similar to those of bupivacaine but with a wider margin of safety. Bupivacaine is probably the most commonly used drug in obstetric epidural analgesia, even though laboratory studies have suggested that pregnancy increases the cardiotoxicity of bupivacaine but not of other local anesthetics. The current study was designed to reevaluate, in a random and blinded fashion, the systemic toxicity of bupivacaine and ropivacaine in nonpregnant and pregnant sheep. Methods Chronically prepared nonpregnant and pregnant ewes were randomized to receive an intravenous infusion of ropivacaine or bupivacaine at a constant rate of 0.5 mg.kg-1.min-1 until circulatory collapse. The investigators were blinded to the identity of local anesthetic. Heart rate, arterial blood pressure, and cardiac rhythm were monitored throughout the study. Arterial blood samples were obtained before infusion and at the onset of toxic manifestations, ...

Twenty patients undergoing elective cholecystectomy were prospectively randomised to receive either intrapleural (bolus 20 ml followed by 10 ml/h) or thoracic epidural (bolus 9 ml followed by 5 ml/h) bupivacaine 0.5% for 8 h postoperatively to assess the effect of these two techniques on pain, pulmonary function and the surgical stress response. As assessed by the visual analogue scale (VAS), both groups received good but not total pain relief. Both groups had a 50% reduction in forced expiratory volume (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) after operation, and there was no observed effect on the stress response as measured by plasma glucose and cortisol. It is concluded that while both techniques provide good analgesia, the degree and extent of nerve blockade are not sufficient to affect the afferent neurogenic stimuli responsible for the observed effects on pulmonary function and the stress response ...
Great question. Here is Dr. Rayazs response:. You calculate the number of milligrams for both local anesthetics and then use the max dose that is the lower of the two local anesthetics. For example, if you give 100mg plain lidocaine without epinephrine (max dose of 4.5-5mg/kg depending on the source) and then intend on giving bupivacaine (max dose of 2.5mg/kg) for a 100kg patient, then you would do the following calculation:. Use the max dose for bupivacaine since it is the lower max dose of the two local anesthetics being used.. 2.5mg/kg x 100kg = 250mg. 250mg - 100mg = 150mg. That leaves 150mg of bupivacaine that can be used or about 60cc of 0.25% bupivacaine (150mg/2.5mg/kg) left over for a tap block.. For a 70kg patient:. 2.5mg/kg x 70kg = 175mg. 175mg - 100mg = 75mg. That leaves 75mg of bupivacaine for a tap block or 30cc of 0.25% bupivacaine (75mg/2.5mg/kg) or 15cc of 0.5% bupivacaine (75mg/5mg/kg). Its a bit more simple in practice than the math problems make it seem. In general, ...

The number of ambulatory surgical procedures is growing and local anesthesia represents the technique of choice for outpatients undergoing minor surgery. The aim of this study was to verify whether differences exist in postoperative pain relief using equipotent doses of two long-acting local anesthetics, ropivacaine and levobupivacaine, in patients who underwent minor breast surgery. A series of 86 consecutive women (median age=55, range=39-75 years) with small (,2 cm in size) breast masses requiring surgical excision were prospectively enrolled in the study. Patients were randomly selected to receive 75 mg/ml ropivacaine (group A, 42 patients) or 5 mg/ml levobupivacaine (group B, 44 patient). For post-surgical measurement of pain intensity a visual analog scale (VAS) was used. The age of the patients (56.4±9.6 vs. 56.7 ±9.5 years; p=0.88) and operative time (38.4 ± vs. 39.8 ±5.0 min; p=0.16), did not differ significantly between the groups (A vs. B). Transient adverse effects were observed ...
To evaluate the analgesic effect of spinal block and systemic morphine, we conducted a preliminary experiment. Analgesia was evaluated by the tail-flick (TF) test. The light beam from a projector bulb was focused on the middle portion of the tail to produce a spot of intense heat, and the TF latency was measured. The intensity of the thermal stimulus was adjusted so that the baseline TF latency was 1.0-2.5 s. A 10-s cutoff time was imposed to minimize tissue damage. In all experiments, the TF latency was determined three times for each mouse. Measurements were obtained before intervention and at 10, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, and 360 min after awaking from anesthesia. We tested five regimens of spinal block (25 μg bupivacaine alone, 25 μg bupivacaine plus 0.5 μg morphine, 25 μg bupivacaine plus 1.25 μg morphine, 25 μg bupivacaine plus 2.5 μg morphine, and 25 μg bupivacaine plus 5 μg morphine) and systemic injection of morphine (5 mg/kg intraperitoneally23). We also tested two control ...

Both PKA and PKC contribute to the activation of ERK in dorsal horn neurons. Kawasaki et al. 10 reported that there were additive effects of PKA and PKC on ERK activation, indicating that PKA and PKC are independent pathways to activate ERK in dorsal horn neurons. Forskolin, acting as a classic stimulator of adenylyl cyclase,34 can increase cAMP, activating PKA, and thus coupling to ERK through the Raf/Ras pathway. Although bupivacaine had no effects on pERK induced by nociceptor-associated GPCR agonists, which might also act through Ras/Raf, bupivacaine still reduced forskolin-induced pERK. Several studies have demonstrated, however, that forskolin has diverse sites of action including not only adenylyl cyclase, but also the glucose transporter and ligand- and voltage-gated ion channels.35 Forskolin modulates voltage-dependent K+conductance through cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent mechanisms,35 inhibiting voltage-dependent K+channels in Helix neurons,36 nudibranch neurons,18 and PC12 cells37 ...

Update on the clinical utility and practical use of ropivacaine in Chinese patients Man Li, Li Wan, Wei Mei, Yuke Tian Department of Anesthesiology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, People's Republic of China Abstract: We reviewed the Chinese and English literature for efficacy and tolerability data as well as pharmacological properties of ropivacaine in Chinese patients. Ropivacaine is a long-acting amide local anesthetic agent that elicits nerve block via reversible inhibition of sodium ion influx in nerve fibers. The available evidence in the literature on anesthesia practice indicates that ropivacaine produces equally surgical sensory block and postoperative and obstetrics analgesia with good maternal and fetal outcome to those of bupivacaine or levobupivacaine. It appears to be associated with comparable onset, quality, and duration of sensory block, but with a lower incidence or grade of motor block, compared to bupivacaine. The
Levobupivacaine is a long-acting local anesthetic agent belonging to the amido amine group, it is basically an S-enantiomer of bupivacaine drug. It has become popular among anesthesiologists worldwide owing to its less cardiotoxicity and motor blockade. It was primarily developed due to the reported incidents of seizures and cardiac arrests experienced due to the use of intravenous injection of bupivacaine. Significant rise in surgeries performed and increasing demand for post-operative pain management drive the levobupivacaine market growth. Epidural anesthesia is currently representing the largest market share in the levobupivacaine market.…. Read More ...

Multimodal analgesia following total hip arthroplasty has been shown to improve patient satisfaction, participation with physical therapy, and allow early return to self care. Liposomal bupivacaine is a formulation of local anesthetic which has the potential to provide anesthesia for up to 72 hours following administration. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of liposomal bupivacaine with bupivacaine following total hip arthroplasty. A retrospective chart review was performed on 28 patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty or hip resurfacing who received intraoperative administration of liposomal bupivacaine. A control group of 30 patients who had previously undergone total hip arthroplasty or hip resurfacing and had received intraoperative administration of bupivacaine also underwent a chart review. Length of stay, post-operative opioid use, and pain scores were compared for both groups. The average length of stay in the study group was 1.93 days and the control group length of
Finally, the role of T-, P-, and Q-type channels in modulating sensory transduction at the level of nociceptors in skin remains to be investigated further. In our hands, the T-type Ca++channel blocker flunarizine failed to modulate bupivacaine anesthesia. In fact, flunarizine was inactive alone, and all three concentrations failed to affect the ED50value for bupivacaine (data not shown). Flunarizine has been reported to block Na+and L-type Ca++channels. Yet flunarizine did not enhance bupivacaine like the 1,4-dihydropyridines or elicit anesthesia like verapamil. Instead, the results indicate that T-type channels, if present on nociceptors, do not modulate bupivacaine anesthesia to noxious radiant heat. Infiltration of the P-type Ca++channel blocker ω-agatoxin IVA (0.063-0.48 μm) in the tail also failed to affect bupivacaine anesthesia. Yet several studies reported that P-type channels in the spinal cord block nociceptive input. Intrathecal ω-agatoxin IVA blocked formalin-induced nociception ...

N2 - We have studied the effects of an extradural block using bupivacaine with adrenaline 90-100 μg on blood flow in the maternal uterine and placental arcuate arteries and the fetal umbilical, renal and middle cerebral arteries, using a colour Doppler technique in eight healthy parturients undergoing elective Caesarean section. Fetal myocardial function was investigated simultaneously by M-mode echocardiography. Maternal heart rate increased and diastolic arterial pressure decreased after extradural administration of bupivacaine with adrenaline. The latter effect was relieved by increasing the infusion rate in every case and none of the patients required vaso-pressors. There ...
BACKGROUND: Moderate to severe pain associated with the removal of pleural chest tubes is poorly controlled with opioids. New methods are needed to manage the pain associated with this procedure. OBJECTIVES: To compare the effects of interpleural injections of 0.25% bupivacaine without epinephrine to those of normal saline on chest tube removal pain in cardiothoracic surgery patients. METHODS: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was used, with a repeated measures design. Pain intensity and distress were measured before, immediately after, and 1 hour after chest tube removal. Pain sensations and affect were evaluated immediately after chest tube removal. The experimental group (n = 21) received bupivacaine and the control group (n = 20) received normal saline. RESULTS: In both groups pain intensity and distress scores were significantly higher at the time of chest tube removal than immediately before or 1 hour after. No significant differences in pain intensity, distress, ...
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are rare when it is administered correctly. Most ADRs relate to administration technique (resulting in systemic exposure) or pharmacological effects of anesthesia, however allergic reactions can rarely occur. Systemic exposure to excessive quantities of ropivacaine mainly result in central nervous system (CNS) and cardiovascular effects - CNS effects usually occur at lower blood plasma concentrations and additional cardiovascular effects present at higher concentrations, though cardiovascular collapse may also occur with low concentrations. CNS effects may include CNS excitation (nervousness, tingling around the mouth, tinnitus, tremor, dizziness, blurred vision, seizures followed by depression (drowsiness, loss of consciousness), respiratory depression and apnea). Cardiovascular effects include hypotension, bradycardia, arrhythmias, and/or cardiac arrest - some of which may be due to hypoxemia secondary to respiratory depression.[2] ...
BACKGROUND: Tramadol has been administered peripherally to prolong analgesia after brachial plexus and neuraxial blocks. Our aim was to evaluate the systemic and perineural effects of tramadol as an analgesic adjunct to psoas compartment block (PCB) with levobupivacaine. METHODS: In a randomized, prospective, double-blinded trial, 60 patients (ASA I-III), aged 49-88 yr, undergoing primary total hip or knee arthroplasty underwent PCB and subsequent bupivacaine spinal anaesthesia. Patients were randomized into three groups. Each patient received PCB with levobupivacaine 0.5%, 0.4 ml kg(-1). The control group (group L, n=21) received i.v. saline, the systemic tramadol group (group IT, n=19) received i.v. tramadol 1.5 mg kg(-1) and the perineural tramadol group (group T, n=20) received i.v. saline and PCB with tramadol 1.5 mg kg(-1). Postoperatively patients received regular paracetamol 6-hourly and diclofenac sodium 12-hourly. Time to first morphine analgesia, 24-hour morphine consumption, sensory ...

The effectiveness of a combination of a lipid emulsion with epinephrine in reversing local anesthetic-induced cardiac arrest has been confirmed. The combination of a lipid emulsion with levosimendan, was shown to be superior to administration of a lipid emulsion alone with regard to successful resuscitation. In this study, we compared the reversal effects of levosimendan, epinephrine, and a combination of the two agents in lipid-based resuscitation in a rat model of bupivacaine-induced cardiac arrest. Fifty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to bupivacaine (15 mg·kg−1) -induced asystole and were then randomly divided into 3 groups. A lipid emulsion was used as the basic treatment, and administration of drug combinations varied in each group as follows: (1) levosimendan combined with epinephrine (LiEL); (2) epinephrine (LiE); and (3) levosimendan (LiL). The resuscitation outcomes were recorded and included the rate of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival at 40 min,
Note the lack of local anesthetics on that list. Lidocaine? No. Hyperbaric bupivacaine? No. Good ol tetracaine? Nope. All local anesthetics in the intrathecal space are off-label. Yet these are the very drugs that serve as the cornerstone for spinal anesthesia.. With a spinal needle and a few milliliters of local anesthetic like bupivacaine or lidocaine, we can achieve an anesthetic which enables surgeons to operate on the abdomen or lower extremities pain-free without any significant cardiopulmonary drawbacks. Sure, sympathectomies are a concern, but weve become extremely good at predicting and mitigating the effects of hypotension, tachy/bradycardias, etc ...
The final dataset included 38 subjects, 26 in the bupivacaine group and 12 in the saline group. A repeated measures analysis of variance showed that subjects receiving treatment with bupivacaine experienced a significant reduction in the numeric rating scale scores compared with those receiving saline at baseline (M = 3.78 vs M = 3.18, P = .10), 15 minutes (M = 3.51 vs M = 2.53, P , .001), 30 minutes (M = 3.45 vs M = 2.41, P , .001), and 24 hours after treatment (M = 4.20 vs M = 2.85, P , .001), respectively. Headache Impact Test-6 scores were statistically significantly decreased in subjects receiving treatments with bupivacaine from before treatment to the final treatment (Mdiff = -4.52, P = .005), whereas no significant change was seen in the saline group (Mdiff = -1.50, P = .13).

In the following experiments, the use dependence of Na sup + current block by local anesthetics (i.e., phasic block) was studied. Na sup + currents were activated every second by voltage steps from -80 to -30 mV, first in control solution and then in the presence of local anesthetics. Control current and several consecutive currents recorded with 100-micro Meter bupivacaine are shown in Figure 4(A). The amplitudes of peak Na sup + currents as a function of pulse number for 0-(control solution), 3-, and 300-micro Meter bupivacaine (n = 8, 8, and 6, respectively) are given in Figure 4(B). Na sup + currents recorded in the presence of local anesthetic were normalized to first currents recorded in control solution. The strongest reduction in the amplitude was seen in the currents activated by the first two pulses (N1 and N2;Figure 4(B)). In the presence of 300-micro Meter bupivacaine, the Na sup + current activated by the second pulse was reduced by 40.0 +/- 4.9%(n = 6) compared with that activated ...

Rapid chiral separation and impurity determination of ropivacaine and bupivacaine by Densitometry-HPTLC, using mucopolysaccharide as chiral mobile phase additive
Background. Chronic pain as the result of long-term peripheral arterial disease and critical limb ischemia is difficult to manage and needs a multidisciplinary approach (pharmacological, psychological and functional) especially when the patient undergoes a lower limb amputation. Amputees show high rates of acute postoperative pain and chronic phantom limb pain in which there are few satisfactory available treatments. Nevertheless, it has been suggested for many years that continuous regional infusion of local anesthetic during immediate postoperative period is an effective and safe way of reducing these complications, morphine consumption and opioids-related adverse effects. However, data is conflicting as to its efficacy for both short-and log-term outcomes. Objective. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a continuous postoperative perineural infusion system with bupivacaine is effective in reduction of postoperative acute pain and morphine intake during the first 72 hours ...
This study aimed to test the hypothesis that levobupivacaine has anti-tumour effects on breast cancer cells. Colony formation and transwell assay were used to determine breast cancer cells proliferation. Flow Cytometry (annexin V and PI staining) was used to investigate breast cancer cells apoptosis. The effects of levobupivacaine on cellular signalling and molecular response were studied with Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction and western blot. Induction of apoptosis was confirmed by cell viability, morphological changes showed cell shrinkage, rounding, and detachments from plates. The results of the western blot and Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction indicated activation of active caspase-3 and inhibition of FOXO1. The results of the flow Cytometry confirmed that levobupivacaine inhibited breast cancer cell proliferation and enhanced apoptosis of breast cancer cells. Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction and Western blot analysis showed increased p21 and decreased cyclin D. Quantitative
Objectives: To evaluate the effect on post tonsillectomy pain control with IV and infiltrated dexamethasone and infiltrated bupivacaine.. Methodology: This randomized controlled trial study was conducted in the department of ENT and neck surgery of Holy Family hospital, Rawalpindi, over a period of one year from May 2019 to May 2020. A total of 140 pediatric patients were selected and were divided into four equal groups randomly by lottery method. Patients in all four groups had endotracheal intubation with general anesthesia. As premedication, all the patients received intravenous midazolam (1mg). Intravenous fentanyl (1.5mg/kg) and propofol (2.5 mg/kg) followed by endotracheal intubation facilitated with atracurium (0.5 mg/kg) were used as general anesthesia in all patients.. Results: There was no significant (p-value ,0.05) difference in gender, age of children, postoperative heart rate, postoperative SPO2, and fentanyl consumption. The duration of surgery was significantly (p-value , 0.05) ...

Sixty neonates and infants will be enrolled and randomised into two groups of n=30 each . For their surgical procedures, one group general (GA) anaesthesia the second group will receive a combined general and epidural anaesthesia (CGEA). Anaesthetic technique: Patients in the GA group will be induced with intravenous propofol (2-4 mg.kg-1) and fentanyl (2-4 µg.kg-1) and will receive rocuronium bromide (0.5 mg.kg-1) to facilitate endotracheal intubation. Anaesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane (2-3%) in an air/oxygen mixture as well as intravenous fentanyl as required. In the (CGEA) 0.5 ml.kg-1 of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected into the epidural catheter, followed by a continuous infusion of 0.1% bupivacaine at a rate of 0.2 mg.kg-1.hr-1 for up to 48 hours postoperatively. Assessment of anaesthetic efficacy will be measured Intraoperative care vital signs. And will continuously be monitored with a Datex AS/3

Results 70 patients (43% female; mean age 60 (±13) years) were included. The intervention and controls groups included 35 patients each. Diagnoses included diverticulitis (72%), colonic malignancy (14%), benign neoplasm (10%) and inflammatory bowel disease (4%). The median number of port sites was 4 (3-5), where 39% of patients had a midline extraction site vs. 61% with a Pfannenstiel. Total incision length was 9.5cm in 63% of patients. No difference in total opioid use was identified between groups (61mg vs. 70mg; p = 0.51) on univariate analysis. A sensitivity analysis was used to account for extremes in opioid use by removing the outermost 10thpercentiles of opioid use; no difference was confirmed (59mg vs. 60mg; p = 0.98). LOS was similar in both groups (median 5 days), with no difference in AEs. There was no significant difference in time to first flatus or bowel movement (p = 0.23 and p = 0.35, respectively). A multivariate logistic regression adjusting for ketorolac and acetaminophen use ...
