  1. Chapter 26 Local Anesthetics

  2. Local Anesthetics • Suppress pain by blocking sodium channels, thereby blocking impulse conduction along axons • Only in neurons located near the site of administration • Suppress pain without generalized depression of nervous system

  3. Local Anesthetics • Basic pharmacology of local anesthetics • Properties of individual local anesthetics • Clinical use of anesthetics

  4. Basic Pharmacology of Local Anesthetics • Classification • Esters • Amides

  5. Fig.26–1. Structural formulas of representative local anesthetics.

  6. Basic Pharmacology of Local Anesthetics • Mechanism of action • Suppress pain by blocking sodium channels, thereby blocking impulse conduction along axons

  7. Basic Pharmacology of Local Anesthetics • Selectivity of anesthetic effects • Only in neurons located near the site of administration • Suppress pain without generalized depression of nervous system

  8. Time Course of Local Anesthesia • Onset of local anesthesia • Termination of local anesthesia • Impact of regional blood flow

  9. Basic Pharmacology of Local Anesthetics • Use with vasoconstrictors • Prolong anesthesia • Reduce the risk for toxicity—slow absorption • Fate in the body • Absorption • Distribution • Metabolism

  10. Basic Pharmacology of Local Anesthetics • Adverse effects • CNS • Cardiovascular • Allergic reaction • Labor and delivery

  11. Properties of Individual Local Anesthetics • Procaine • Lidocaine • Cocaine • Other local anesthetics

  12. Procaine • Was formerly the anesthetic of choice for injection • Now replaced by others • Preparations • Available in solution (1%, 2%, and 10%)

  13. Lidocaine • Most widely used local anesthetic • Topical and injectable applications • Effects extended if given with epinephrine • Also used for cardiac dysrhythmias

  14. Lidocaine • Preparations • Cream • Ointment • Jelly • Solution • Aerosol • Patch

  15. Cocaine • First local anesthetic • Central nervous system (CNS) effects • Peripheral nervous system (PNS) effects (sympathetic) • Cardiovascular effects • Preparation and administration • Should not be given with vasoconstrictor

  16. Other Local Anesthetics • Grouped according to route • Topical • Injection

  17. Other Local Anesthetics • Topical • Therapeutic uses • Systemic toxicity • Injection • Infiltration, nerve block, IV regional, epidural, and spinal (subarachnoid) • Should be administered by anesthesiologist • IV and monitoring required
