mepivacaine and Perceptual Disorders

mepivacaine has been researched along with Perceptual Disorders 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.

Perceptual Disorders: Cognitive disorders characterized by an impaired ability to perceive the nature of objects or concepts through use of the sense organs. These include spatial neglect syndromes, where an individual does not attend to visual, auditory, or sensory stimuli presented from one side of the body.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Anecdotally, orofacial pain patients sometimes report that the painful face area feels "swollen."1.42Painful stimulation and transient blocking of nerve transduction due to local anesthesia evoke perceptual distortions of the face in healthy volunteers. ( Baad-Hansen, L; Castrillon, E; Dagsdóttir, L; Jensen, TS; Roepstorff, A; Skyt, I; Svensson, P; Vase, L, 2015)
"Patients suffering from persistent orofacial pain may sporadically report that the painful area feels "swollen" or "differently," a phenomenon that may be conceptualized as a perceptual distortion because there are no clinical signs of swelling present."1.42Experimental orofacial pain and sensory deprivation lead to perceptual distortion of the face in healthy volunteers. ( Baad-Hansen, L; Castrillon, E; Dagsdóttir, LK; Skyt, I; Svensson, P; Vase, L, 2015)
