• HISTORY : Ist Local anaesthetic used was COCAINE by CARRRL KOLLAR in ophthalmic patient for anaesthetising cornea.
• CLASSIFICATION
• AMINOESTERS AMINOAMIDES
• Procaine Lignocaine
• Chloroprocaine Mepivacaine• Tetracaine Prilocaine• Benzocaine Bupivacaine
• Cocaine Ethidocaine Ropivacaine
Based on duration , action & potency
• Short duration , low potency• CHLOROPROCAINE• PROCAINE
• Intermediate duration & intermediate potency• LIGNOCAINE• MEPIVACAINE• PRILOCAINE• COCAINE
• Long duration , high potency• BUPIVACAINE• TETRACAINE• ETHIDOCAINE• DIBUCAINE [ Longest duration]• ROPIVACAINE
•
MECHANISM OF ACTION•
Drug undissociated [ nonionised ] form penetrates axonal membrane & inside gets dissociated [ ionised]
• Ionised form binds recepter situated in Na channel in inactivated state from inner side ,blocking channel & prevents depolarization & hence action potential
• GENERAL CONSIDERATION• POTENCY depends on lipid solubility • ONSET OF ACTION depends on PKa closer to body
PH rapid action Addition of Sodabicarb -- rapid action• TYPE OF NERVE FIBRE• Myelinated > sensitive than non-myelinated • B fibre block rapidly than C --- AUTONOMIC [ C &
B] –SENSORY [ C & A ] ---MOTOR
IN RECOVERY –MOTOR -- SENSORY -- AUTONOMIC IN SENSORY --TEMP [COLD > HOT ] –PAIN --TOUCH –DEEP PRESSURE ---PROPIOCEPTION
• DURATION OF ACTION depends on − DOSE
− PLASMA PROTIEN BINDING
− METABOLISM− ADDITION OF VOSOCONSTRICTERS− ADRENALINE − SODABICARBONATE
• SYSTEMIC ABSORPTION depends on − SITE OF INJECTION− ADDITION OF VASOCONSTRICTERS
METABOLISM
• ESTERS are metabolised by pseudocholinesterase [ except COCAINE]
• AMIDES metabolised by hepatic microsomal ENZYMES
• Significant amount of prilocaine by lungs
SYSTEMIC EFFECTS & TOXICITY
• CVS
− Vasodilaters except COCAINE − LIGNOCAINE & PROCAINE have stabilizing
effect on cell membrane of cardiac tissue
− Negative inotropic action on myocardium
− Depresses conduction system
− Bradycardia , decraeses myocardial contractility, hypotention , vetricular arrhythmias causes cardiac arrest
− Cardiotoxic potential is much higher with bupivacaine
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
• Exitation followed by depression of cerebral tissue leading to
− Circumoral numbness
− Dizziness
−Tongue parasthesia
− Visual and auditory disturbanses
−Muscle twiching , tremors , convulsion, followed by coma and death.
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
• LIGNOCAINE depresses hypoxic drive . Direct depression of medullary respiratory center can occur at high doses
IMMUNOLOGIC • Allergic reaction are very common with esters but
rare with amides .The reaction with amides is due to preservative [ Methyl paraben ] Cross sensitivity does not exist between classes but exist between agents of
same class .
LOCAL TOXICITY• NEUROTOXIC when directly injected into nerve
• MYOTOXIC when directly injected into muscle
• CHLOROPROCAINE can cause neurological defecits
• Cauda equina syndrome seen with repeated doses of 5% LIGNOCAINE & 0.5% TETRACAINE
• Local anaesthetic with ADRENALINE can cause necrosis & gangrene if used in ring block
• Methaehaemoglobinemia seen with PRILOCAINE , BENZOCAINE & very rarely with LIGNOCAINE
• LIGNOCAINE can cause Malignant hyperthermia in susceptible individual .
METHODS OF LOCAL ANALGESIA
• Topical application EMLA [ Euethetic mixure of PRILOCAINE 5% & LIGNOCAINE 5% ] IN EQUAL amount.
• XYLOCAINE SPRAY 4% , TETRACAINE & BENZOCAINE LOZENGES for mucous membrane of mouth pharynx & larynx
• XYLOCAINE JELLY 2% for catheterization and proctoscopies
• LIGNOCAINE 4% , DIBUCAINE 1% & BENZOCAINE 5% for anal fissure and painful piles
• OXETHAZAINE [ mucaine gel ] 0.2% for gastritis
• INFILTRATION ANAESTHESIA
• NERVE BLOCKS
• INTRAVENOUS REGIONAL ANAESTHESIA [ BIERS BLOCK]
• CENTRAL NEURAXIAL BLOCK [ SPINAL , EPIDURAL]
• REFRIGERATION ANEASTHESIA [ CO2 snow , ice cooling ,ethyl chloride spray ]
COCAINE
• Extracted from Erythexylon Coca
• CNS – Euphoria , Agitation , Hyperexcitation , Violence convulsion , apnea & death
• CVS—Potent vasoconstricter
• Metabolised in liver. Metabolite ecognine is CNS stimulant
• USES—Only for surface analgesia 1% solution for cornea. Never use intravenously .
PROCAINE
• Agent of choice in pt of malignant hyperthermia
CHLOROPROCAINE • Shortest acting ,most acidic• Contraindicated in spinal anaesthesia
• Max safe dose of both -- 1,000mg
TETRACAINE• IT can cause ventricular fibrillation• A lozenges containing tetracaine available• Duration of action > cocaine & lignocaine
MEPIVACAINE• Same as lignocaine PRILOCAINE• Methaemoglobinemia occurs at higher doses
DIBUCAINE• Longest acting , most potent ,most toxic
LIGNOCAINE
• Ist synthesised in 1943 in Sweden by LOFGREN of AB astra . Used in clinical practice in 1948
• Solution stable , contains preservative methyl paraben . PKa--- 7.8 .
• Concentration used • SURFACE ANAESTHESIA 4 %. 10% 15%
• GARGLING 2% VISCOUS• NERVE BLOCKS 1 -- 2%• URETHRAL PROCEDURE 2% Jelly
• SPINAL --- 5% Heavy
• EPIDURAL ---1 to 2% WITH Adrenaline
• CARDIAC ARRYTHMIAS --- 2% XYLOCARD
• IV BIERS BLOCK --- 0.5 %
• INFILTRATION BLOCK --- 1 to 2%
PREPARATIONS OF LIGNOCAINE
METABOLISM –In liver . Excreted by kidney half life –6 hrs
• DURATION OF ACTION
• With ADRENALINE --- 2 – 3 hrs
• Without ADRENALINE --- 45 – 60 mins
• Max safe dose ----3mg/ kg plain
---7 mg / kg with ADRENALINE
• EFFECTS -- CNS effects occur at much lesser dose than CVS .Systemic toxicity is more than Bupivacaine
LIGNOCAINE releases calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum so should not be used in pt with malignant hyperthermia
• Can cause cauda equina syndrome after continuous spinal
• OTHER USES -- CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS
• Blunting response to laryngoscopy & intubation
LIGNOCAINE SENSITIVITY
BUPIVACAINE
• 4 times potent than xylocaine 0.5% solution available ie more stable
• Highly cardiotoxic . It increases in pregnancy , hypoxia & acidosis High degree of tissue and protein binding makes resuscitation prolonged and difficult
• Should not be used in BIERS block• Metabolised in liver t1/2 – 3.5 hrs
PREPARATIONS OF BUPIVACAINE
DURATION OF EFFECT without adrenaline --2– 3hrs with adrenaline -- 3—5 hrs
• Max safe dose –2mg / kg [with /without adrenaline]• CONCENTRATION USED
• For nerve block -- 0.5%
• Epidural -- 0.5% [ ANAESTHESIA]
-- 0.25% [ ANALGESIA]
-0.125% [ POST OP ANALGSIA]
• SPINAL -- 0.5% [heavy ]
• Labour analgesia – 0.125% to 0.0625 %
ROPIVACAINE
• ROPIVACAINE consists of single enantiomer /the S isomer [ levo isomer ]
• Cardiotoxicity & CNS toxicity is much less than bupivacaine.so cardiac arrest following ropivacaine has much better prognosis due
• To Rapid reversal of sodium channel Rapid clearance from circulation
• Motor & sensory block is similar to bupivacaine
• SAFE DOSE – 3mg/kg
INFILTRATION BLOCK
• Managing interacting pain by injecting 0.5% lignocaine or 0.25% bupivacaine in to painful tissue
• Leads to disappearance of referred pain ,muscle spasm
• Mostly used in sprains ,strains ,painful undisplaced fracture , low back pain , burcitis ,tendinitis ,artritis ,myalgia torticolitis
• Painful scars following surgery
DIGITAL NERVE BLOCK
• The digital nerves to a fingre or toe can be blocked by infiltration of local anaesthetic solution on either side of base of proximal phalynx
• .Lignocaine 0.5% shoud be used
but remember without adrenaline.
• Adrenaline causes marked vasoconstriction of digital vessels leading to gangrene
ANKLE BLOCK
• Deep peroneal , superficial peroneal and sephanous nerve blocked along with subcutaneous infiltration at the dorsum of foot , posterior tibial posterior to medial malleolus and sural laterally between lateral malleolus and Achillis tendon
PARACERVICAL BLOCK
• Injection of 8-10 ml 1% Lignocaine into each fornix blocks afferent supply of uterus & produces adequete Ist stage pain relief in 80% of pt.
• Disadvantage –Foetal bradycardia [20—30%] due to decrease in placental flow resulting from uterine artery vasoconstriction .
PUDENDAL NERVE BLOCK
• Indications• surgery of lower vagina & perineum• midcavity forcep delivery & episeotomy
repair• Not for MRP
• METHODS *Transperineal approach
*Transvaginal approach
TRANSPERINEAL PUDENDAL NERVE BLOCK
• Skin wheal over ischial tuberocity . 10 cm needle inserted & guided until point lies above and behind ischial spine with free hand in vagina .10 ml 1% lignocaine hydrocloride injected on both side
TRANSVAGINAL PUDENDAL NERVE BLOCK
• Guarded needle , tip inserted just above &behind ischial spine 20ml 1% lignocaine
hydrocloride.Needle first passes through sacrospinous ligament .Simpler , less painful ,higher success rate , less damage to foetus

• Opiods ,ketamine midazolam
SYSTEMIC EFFECTS
• CVS : * Venodilatation due to sympathetic block
* Dilatation of post arteriolar capillaries * Decreases cardiac output
* Decreases venous return Bradycardia ( Bainbridge reflex ) - Inhibition of cardioaccelator fibers[T1-T4] - Paralysis of nerve supply to adrenal gland
with decrease catecholamine supply *Supine hypotention syndrome
* Systemic direct drug absorption
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
• Sequence of block * Autonomic Sensory
-- Motor and recovery is reverse . Hence autonomic level is 2 seg higher than sensory level which is 2 seg higher than motor block
-- Ist -- Temp ( cold – hot ) –pinprick –motor ---touch -- propioception
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
• Tidal volume , minute volume , PaO2 well maintained
• In higher blocks impairment of respiratory function to paralysis of abdominal & lower intercostal occures
• Apnea only in total spinal due to severe hypotention causing medullary ischemia.
GASTROINTESTINAL SYSTEM
• Contracted gut with relaxed spinctures due to sympathetic block & parasympathetic overactivity . Peristalsis increased.
LIVER• Minimal effect
RENAL• Impaired only if critical pressure of kidney for
autoregulation falls below 55 mm of hg
GENITAL SYSTEM
• Flaacid and enlarged penis is one of the sign of successful block.
ENDOCRINAL
* Stess response to surgery ( adrenals) inhibited
* Respose to insulin is augmented & there can be hypoglycemia
* Increase in ADH during surgery suppresed.
THERMOREGULATION
• Venodilatation causes heat loss .Compenseted vasoconstriction & shivering .
SITE OF ACTION ( LOCAL ANAESTHETICS)
* Acts on spinal nerves & dorsal ganglion

HISTORY 1st epidural was given by CORNING in 1885
• What is epidural space?• Lies within body cavity of
spinal canal & outside dural sac
• Ant-body of vertebra & post longitudinal ligament
• Post-ligamentum flavem
Epidural space contains-fat & venous plexes• Negative pressure in space due to
* negative pressure is transmitted from pleural cavity via thoracic paravertebral space
* negative pressure created by flexion of spine
* created by identing the dura with needle point
• TWO TYPES Single shot epidural continous with catheter
WHY EPIDURAL ?
• Early ambulation of patient possible• Better wound healing
• Less respiratory discomfort• Less abdominal discomfort • Psycological stability
• Economic , less hospital stay• Mothers & baby outcome well in labour analgesia
