mepivacaine and Icterus Gravis Neonatorum

mepivacaine has been researched along with Icterus Gravis Neonatorum in 1 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Our results suggest that the neonatal jaundice associated with maternal anesthesia, especially bupivacaine, may be related to the observations that these agents cross the placenta, bind to the red cell membrane and reduce its filterability, resulting in shortened red cell survival."1.27Bupivacaine alters red blood cell properties: a possible explanation for neonatal jaundice associated with maternal anesthesia. ( Clark, DA; Landaw, SA, 1985)
