Anesthetic efficacy and safety of ropivacaine 0.75% versus bupivacaine 0.5% for spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing lower limb orthopedic surgery

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Ropivacaine, a new amino-amide local anesthetic agent, is similar in chemical structure to bupivacaine. The low solubility of ropivacaine leads to greater sensory-motor differentiation by blocking sensory nerve fiber more readily than motor ...

Impact of temperature on EC50 of ropivacaine in axillary brachial plexus blocks: based on Dixon’s up-and-down method

Frontiers in Medicine
ObjectiveThe efficacy of local anesthetics like ropivacaine in axillary brachial plexus blocks may be influenced by temperature, though its impact on the median effective concentration (EC50) remains unclear.

Comparison of caudal analgesia between ropivacaine and ropivacaine with clonidine in children: A randomized controlled trial

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2012
Background: Addition of clonidine to ropivacaine (0.2%) can potentially enhance analgesia without producing prolonged motor blockade. The aim of the present study was to compare the post-operative pain relieving quality of ropivacaine 0.2% and clonidine ...

Controlled Release of Ropivacaine from Single-Armed (1-PCL) and Four-Armed PCL (4-PCL) Microspheres

International Journal of Polymer Science, 2019
Sustained release of anesthesia has shown great promise in the treatment of chronic pain in patients. In this research, we used neutralized ropivacaine as an anesthesia and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) with different architectures to systematically study ...

A comparative study of efficacy of ropivacaine (0.75%) with adjuvants – dexmedetomidine and fentanyl in supraclavicular brachial plexus block

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Brachial plexus block is preferred to general anesthesia (GA) as it reduces many complications of GA, provides good intra and postoperative analgesia, adequate muscle relaxation.

Esketamine/Ketamine: Dual‐Action Mechanisms and Clinical Prospects beyond Anesthesia in Psychiatry, Immunology, and Oncology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Esketamine and ketamine are widely used for perioperative analgesia and anesthesia. Despite their established roles in analgesia, sedation, and anesthesia, as well as emerging antidepressant, anti‐tumor, and anti‐inflammatory effects, their clinical use is limited due to side effects and addiction potential.
