“…Bupivacaine is a type of surgical local anesthetic, and studies have demonstrated that the excessive administration of bupivacaine results in central nervous system and cardiovascular system poisoning (7,8). Bupivacaine has been wildly used in clinical surgeries such as tonsillectomy, neuroleptanalgesia and tumor resections.…”
