Local anesthetics are drugs widely used to perform peripheral nerve blocks. Signs and symptoms of toxicity may vary from mild to severe, including neuro and cardiotoxicity, with seizures and cardiac arrest. We present the case of an 85-year-old patient in total left knee replacement plan due to tibial sa...
RESUMO Convencionalmente, a associação de anestésicos locais com vasoconstritores é evitada em extremidades pelo risco de isquemia. Entretanto, estudos recentes sugerem haver segurança no uso de vasoconstritor em extremidades. Procuramos, assim, avaliar a efetividade e segurança do uso de vasoconst...
