bupivacaine and Muscle Relaxation

bupivacaine has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 11 studies

Bupivacaine: A widely used local anesthetic agent.
1-butyl-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)piperidine-2-carboxamide : A piperidinecarboxamide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of N-butylpipecolic acid with the amino group of 2,6-dimethylaniline.
bupivacaine : A racemate composed of equimolar amounts of dextrobupivacaine and levobupivacaine. Used (in the form of its hydrochloride hydrate) as a local anaesthetic.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To report the use of regional anesthesia and iv nitroglycerin to provide anesthesia and uterine relaxation for three Cesarean deliveries (CD) involving ex utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) of potentially life-threatening airway obstruction in the newborn."3.74Case series: Combined spinal epidural anesthesia for Cesarean delivery and ex utero intrapartum treatment procedure. ( George, RB; Habib, AS; Melnick, AH; Rose, EC, 2007)
" An in vitro study, using helical preparations of human umbilical arteries and veins obtained from healthy women at term pregnancy, was designed to determine: (a) whether three local anaesthetics commonly utilized in obstetric anaesthesia (bupivacaine, 2-chloroprocaine, and lignocaine) can induce contraction or relaxation of resting umbilical vessels; (b) whether these agents can induce contraction or relaxation of umbilical vessels which have been previously induced to contract by a known activator, potassium chloride (KCl); and (c) the relative potency of these agents as compared to KCl."3.67Vasoactive actions of local anaesthetics on human isolated umbilical veins and arteries. ( Altura, B; Freese, K; Halevy, S; Liu-Barnett, M; Monuszko, E, 1989)
"Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which has been used to protect spasm reaction during tracheal intubation and bronchoscopy."1.35Relaxation of tracheal smooth muscle independent on functional epithelium cells induced by lidocaine, bupivacaine and isomers in rats.
