Comparative evaluation of two different volumes of lidocaine in intravenous regional anesthesia

Abstract: BackgroundThis study was conducted to compare low concentration-high volume intravenous regional anesthesia (IVRA) method with local anesthetic method in upper extremity surgery in terms of efficiency and adverse effects.Material/MethodsThirty-nine patients were divided into 2 groups; the first group received a 2% concentration of 12–15 mL lidocaine (Group 1) and the second group received a 0.5% concentration of 30–50 mL lidocaine (Group 2). Intraoperative hemodynamic data of patients (systolic blood pressure,… Show more

“…Since the use of additional tourniquet reduces the amount of volume used, it contributes to minimize the risk in case of possible leakage. It was stated that concentration levels did not make any difference on tourniquet pain [12]. While high concentrations have been reported to help save time, it should not be overlooked that high concentrations pose an increased risk of endothelial damage [13].…”
