lidocaine and Death, Sudden

lidocaine has been researched along with Death, Sudden in 39 studies

Lidocaine: A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.
lidocaine : The monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of N,N-diethylglycine with 2,6-dimethylaniline.

Death, Sudden: The abrupt cessation of all vital bodily functions, manifested by the permanent loss of total cerebral, respiratory, and cardiovascular functions.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The purpose of our study was to determine the morbidity and mortality in initially stable patients presenting to paramedics with chest pain; to examine possible beneficial effects of its use, including reduction of sudden death syndrome in the prehospital and emergency department setting; and to determine if prophylactic lidocaine is associated with adverse effects in this patient population."9.06Prehospital prophylactic lidocaine does not favorably affect outcome in patients with chest pain. ( Aufderheide, TP; Chapman, PD; Haecker, P; Hargarten, K; Mateer, JR; Olson, DW; Stueven, HA; Waite, EM, 1990)
"The prophylactic use of lidocaine in the patient with cardiac chest pain has been reported to reduce the incidence of sudden death from ventricular dysrhythmias in the hospital setting, but few studies have been done in the early prehospital phase."9.06Prophylactic lidocaine in the prehospital patient with chest pain of suspected cardiac origin. ( Aprahamian, C; Darin, J; Hargarten, KM; Mateer, JR; Stueven, HA; Thompson, BM, 1986)

( Hoffman, BF; Legenza, M; Southworth, SR; Temesy-Armos, PN, 1985)
"Twenty-five patients entered a prospective study to assess the usefulness of atropine and lignocaine autoinjectors for coronary events after discharge from hospital after a definite, complicated myocardial infarction."3.66Use of lignocaine and atropine autoinjectors for patients at high risk of sudden death and reinfarction after myocardial infarction. ( Baker, G; Hamer, A; Hunt, D; Sloman, G, 1981)
"Many sudden deaths are presumed to be due to an arrhythmia, but the drugs best known for antiarrhythmic activity, the local anesthetic agents, have not been suitable prophylactic agents because of their toxicities and other undesirable pharmacologic characteristics."2.65Selection of an antiarrhythmic drug for a sudden-death-prevention trial. ( Duff, HJ; Oates, JA; Roden, DM; Woosley, RL, 1982)
" If side effects intervene that may cause continued therapy to be intolerable, changing the antiarrhythmic agent, as opposed to decreasing the dosage to an ineffective range, may be appropriate."1.27New directions in antiarrhythmic drug therapy. ( Somberg, JC, 1984)
"Eight patients died; 3 were sudden deaths in 13 +/- 5 months, a 17% incidence."1.27Lorcainide therapy for the high-risk patient post myocardial infarction. ( Butler, B; Flowers, D; Keefe, D; Miura, DS; Somberg, JC; Tepper, D; Torres, V, 1984)
