mepivacaine and Arm Injuries

mepivacaine has been researched along with Arm Injuries in 2 studies

Mepivacaine: A local anesthetic that is chemically related to BUPIVACAINE but pharmacologically related to LIDOCAINE. It is indicated for infiltration, nerve block, and epidural anesthesia. Mepivacaine is effective topically only in large doses and therefore should not be used by this route. (From AMA Drug Evaluations, 1994, p168)
mepivacaine : A piperidinecarboxamide in which N-methylpipecolic acid and 2,6-dimethylaniline have combined to form the amide bond. It is used as a local amide-type anaesthetic.

Arm Injuries: General or unspecified injuries involving the UPPER ARM and the FOREARM.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Tramadol is an analgesic drug that is antagonized by alpha2-adrenoceptor antagonists, as well as opioid antagonists."2.69Tramadol added to mepivacaine prolongs the duration of an axillary brachial plexus blockade. ( Gollmann, G; Kapral, S; Lehofer, F; Likar, R; Sladen, RN; Waltl, B; Weinstabl, C, 1999)
"The case is reported of a female patient with attack-like neuropathic pain following lower arm injury with repeated respiratory depression and unconsciousness even after several administrations of sufficiently dosed analgetics for suppression of the attacks."1.35[Life-threatening respiratory depression after pain therapy]. ( Gläser, M; Kohlhaas, K; Maier, C; Tegenthoff, M, 2008)
