Plasma Lidocaine Concentrations During Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion Therapy in the Pediatric Population—A Scoping Review

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.
