The aim of local infiltration is to anesthetize nerve endings in a finite area of tissue by the injection of local anesthetics nearby. This stands in contrast to peripheral nerve blocks, in which nerve axons are the target and the injection may take place in an area removed from the surgical site (eg, brachial plexus block for hand surgery).

Local infiltration anesthesia. Hold the local anesthetic syringe at a shallow angle to the skin. Insert the needle directly into the exposed subdermal layer of the wound edge (ie, do not insert the needle percutaneously) and advance the needle to the hub.

Tips for the infiltration of local anaesthetic. Use a fine needle to reduce the pain of multiple injections (27 gauge is ideal) Move the needle as you inject to prevent large dose intravascular injection. Inject slowly to reduce the pain of infiltration. Expanding the skin quickly with a fast injection is one of the main causes of pain and may

Local anesthetics are used for infiltration and nerve block anesthesia. Because of variation in systemic absorption and toxicity, the ideal choice of local anesthetic and concentration depends on the intended procedure. Infiltration anesthesia is often used for minor surgical and dental procedures. Nerve block anesthesia is used for surgical

Local anesthetics (LAs) are used to block transmission of impulses in nerve fibers, to reduce or eliminate sensation. LAs may be used for neuraxial analgesia and anesthesia, peripheral nerve blocks, subcutaneous and tissue infiltration, and topical anesthesia. This topic will discuss the mechanism of action of LAs, the properties that

Abstract. Local anesthetic wound infiltration (WI) provides anesthesia for minor surgical procedures and improves postoperative analgesia as part of multimodal analgesia after general or regional anesthesia. Although pre-incisional block is preferable, in practice WI is usually done at the end of surgery. WI performed as a continuous modality

Local and topical anesthetics are generally safe when dosed properly, and they remain confined to the site of administration, such as a nerve plexus or infiltrated tissue. However, if large quantities of local anesthetic enter the systemic circulation, toxicity can result from supratherapeutic drug levels.

Local infiltration anesthesia is the technique of producing loss-of-sensation restricted to a superficial, localized area in the body. A low concentration of anesthetic agent is infiltrated into the tissues in the area that requires anesthesia. This is often used for dental surgery and minor skin surgeries.

Infiltration or instillation of local anesthetics around and into the joint as an analgesic adjunct for postoperative joint surgery pain has been used for decades. However, there has been a renewed interest in local infiltration analgesia (LIA), partly due to the work in 2008 of Kerr and Kohan, who demonstrated superior analgesia after total knee or hip arthroplasty with extended, diluted

In doing so, a certain minimum volume of local anesthetic is required for an effective local infiltration to cover all relevant structures. With conventional concentrations of local anesthetic solutions, such high volumes carry an unacceptable risk of systemic toxicity (see Chapter 65, Local Anesthetic Systemic Toxicity).
