Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Intravenous lidocaine therapy (IVLT) is often used in perioperative multimodal analgesia due to its analgesic, anti‐hyperalgesic, and anti‐inflammatory effects. In adults, IVLT doses of 1–2 mg/kg/h produce plasma concentrations of 1–2 μg/mL, within the presumed therapeutic range of 1–5 μg/mL.
