Intrathecal lidocaine elevates prostaglandin E2 levels in cerebrospinal fluid: a microdialysis study in freely-moving rats

Abstract: Background. In this study, we have investigated whether intrathecal (i.t.) lidocaine administration is accompanied with changes of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2) levels. Methods. Rats were anaesthetized for i.t. implantation of a triple-lumen spinal loop dialysis catheter. CSF changes in PGE 2 after i.t. injection of saline, 400, or 1000 mg of lidocaine were measured. The impact of i.t. pretreatment with 5 mg MK801 (N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate antagonist) or 10 mg SC76309A (COX-2 inhibi… Show more
