Safety of local anesthetics, [PDF]

open access: yesAnais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2020
Local anesthetics are essential medications for the conduction of dermatological procedures. They stop the depolarization of nerve fibers and are divided into two main categories, the amide and ester types.

Lipid Emulsion for Local Anesthetic Systemic Toxicity [PDF]

open access: yesAnesthesiology Research and Practice, 2012
The accidental overdose of local anesthetics may prove fatal. The commonly used amide local anesthetics have varying adverse effects on the myocardium, and beyond a certain dose all are capable of causing death.

The thermodynamics of general and local anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys. J. 2014, 106: 2143-2156, 2014
General anesthetics are known to cause depression of the freezing point of transitions in biomembranes. This is a consequence of ideal mixing of the anesthetic drugs in the membrane fluid phase and exclusion from the solid phase. Such a generic law provides physical justification of the famous Meyer-Overton rule.

Local anesthetic resistance in a pregnant patient with lumbosacral plexopathy [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2004
Background We report a case of a patient with apparent resistance to local anesthetics. While similar cases of failure of regional anesthetics are often attributed to technical failure, the overall clinical presentation and history of this patient ...

On the action potential as a propagating density pulse and the role of anesthetics [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys. Rev. Letters 2 (2007) 57-78, 2006
The Hodgkin-Huxley model of nerve pulse propagation relies on ion currents through specific resistors called ion channels. We discuss a number of classical thermodynamic findings on nerves that are not contained in this classical theory. Particularly striking is the finding of reversible heat changes, thickness and phase changes of the membrane during ...

Local Anesthetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The fascinating history of local anesthetics (LAs) began in South America with the herbal and traditional use of cocaine leaves by the indigenous peoples of Peru and Bolivia, the sacred plant of the Incas Erythroxylum coca.

Characterization of Large-Scale Functional Brain Networks During Ketamine-Medetomidine Anesthetic Induction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Several experiments provide evidence that specialized brain regions functionally interact and reveal that the brain processes and integrates information in a specific and structured manner. Networks can be applied to model brain functional activities, providing means to characterize and quantify this structured form of organization.

Research advances in the roles of local anesthetics in tumor metastasis and recurrence [PDF]

open access: yesJichu yixue yu linchuang, 2022
Anesthetics are commonly used in the perioperative treatment of tumor. The choice of different anesthetics and anesthesia techniques will affect the proliferation, metastasis, recurrence and prognosis of cancer.

Direct Cytotoxic and Indirect, Immune-Mediated Effects of Local Anesthetics Against Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Local anesthetics are frequently employed during surgery in order to control peri- and postoperative pain. Retrospective studies have revealed an unexpected correlation between increased long-term survival and the use of local anesthetics during ...
