Hi All,
I was wondering if peeps could share their stories of local anesthetic tox.
Over the past 8 years, I have had a few mild ones (i.e. transient nausea, vertigo) which have quickly resolved with Oxygen by face mask, and 1 which put the frighteners into me (he was fine in the end- but definitely brown pants time during the resuct'n).
Has anyone used Intralipid 20%? I have it in the clinic, but hope never to have to use it !!!!
Any and all stories, with management appreciated.
In particular, I note that a modification has been discussed ( recommended ? ) in regards to epi dosing / ACLS resuc and LAST - i.e. 0.1 mg versus the usual 1 mg ?
