Intravenous regional anesthesia

Techniques in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management, 2000
Abstract Intravenous regional anesthesia (IVRA) is one of the most common regional techniques worldwide. The mechanism of action is multifactorial but the main action of the local anesthetic seems to be on the larger nerves in the vicinity of the antecubital fossa. Prilocaine is considered the safest local anesthetic for IVRA.

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1964
We have found intravenous regional anesthesia, by the method of expressing the blood, applying a temporary tourniquet, injecting the lidocaine, then placing the second tourniquet on an anesthetized portion of the arm and removing the first tourniquet, to be a very simple and effective way to achieve anesthesia in operations on the hand.

Site of Action of Intravenous Regional Anesthesia

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1984
The principal site of action of intravenous regional anesthesia was studied using both prilocaine HC1 0.5% and technetium pertechnetate to define their distribution in the upper limb during this method of anesthesia. Using a single upper arm tourniquet and injecting technetium pertechnetate into a cubital fossa vein, the isotope spread to the finger ...
