Along with the brief history of amide local anesthetics development, their most important properties (from the viewpoint of use in clinical dental practice), are also reviewed. In particular, some properties of most commonly used local anesthetics, such as lidocaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, bupivacaine and articaine are analysed. The most important data concerning pharmacological mechanisms of mentioned anesthetics' action, that cause certain features and peculiarities of their clinical application are given in condensed form. Besides, some precaution measures that must be taken into account in specific clinical cases together with the history and current status of each patient are mentioned as well.

Modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach for surgical patients: a scoping review.
BMC Anesthesiol
December 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, Nara Medical University, Shijo-cho 840, Kashihara, Nara, 634-8522, Japan.
Background: Modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) is a trunk block that has been gaining attention for managing postoperative pain following abdominal surgeries since its first report in 2019. We conducted a scoping review on M-TAPA, aiming to comprehensively evaluate existing research, identify the gaps in knowledge, and understand the implications of M-TAPA.
Methods: This scoping review was conducted using databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and CINAHL to evaluate the clinical efficacy of M-TAPA on April 19, 2024.

Otitis externa is one of the most common diseases in otorhinolaryngological practice frequently requiring prescription of analgesic medications and antimicrobials. The total of 2714 patients were included in the retrospective study to evaluate bacterial etiology, effectiveness, and safety of topical empirical treatment of patients with diagnosed otitis externa during 2018-2023. The most common pathogens isolated were (38.

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a neurotoxin that binds to sodium channels and blocks sodium conduction. Importantly, TTX has been increasingly detected in edible aquatic organisms. Because of this and the lack of specific antidotes, TTX poisoning is now a major threat to public health.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of intravenous lidocaine injection on the half-maximum effective concentration (EC50) of remifentanil in preventing cough due to tracheal extubation in female patients undergoing thyroid surgery by Dixon's sequential method.
Methods: A total of 50 female patients underwent elective thyroidectomy were randomly divided into two groups of a 1:1 ratio. Group L (lidocaine group) was given intravenous lidocaine (1.
Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Extra-Prevertebral Fascial Suprascapular Nerve and Infraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block on Postoperative Analgesia and Phrenic Nerve Function in Shoulder Arthroscopy: A Pilot Study.

Department of Anesthesiology, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100050, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: The suprascapular nerve is situated between the prevertebral fascia and the superficial layer of deep cervical fascia and on the surface of the middle and posterior scalene muscles before it reaches the suprascapular notch. Consequently, we hypothesized that injecting local anesthetics (LAs) there would introduce a new block approach for blocking the suprascapular nerve, ie, extra-prevertebral fascial block. We assessed the postoperative analgesic effect, as well as the incidence of diaphragmatic paralysis 30 minutes after the block.
