Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of local infiltration anesthesia with different concentrations of ropivacaine on the healing of incision in rats.Methods Seventy-five adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 220-250 g,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =15 each):natural healing group (group C),normal saline group (group NS),0.20% ropivacaine group (group R0.20),0.50% ropivacaine group (group R0.50) and 0.75% ropivacaine group (group R075).0.20%,0.05% and 0.75% ropivacaine 1.0 ml/kg were injected subcutaneously 10 min before incision in R0.20,R0.50 and R0.75 groups,respectively,while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group NS.Five rats in each group were chosen for recording the healing time.Ten rats were taken in each group for recording the length of the incision 72 h after operation.The skin tissues around the incision were removed for determination of fibroblast counts under light microscope,IL-1β content (by ELISA) and the expression of collagen (by immunohistochemisty) and IL-1β mRNA (by RT-PCR).Results Compared with Cgroup,the healing time and length of the incision were significantly shortened,the fibroblast counts and expression of collagen were increased in R0.20 group,the healing time and length of the incision were shortened,the fibroblast counts and expression of collagen were increased,and the expression of IL-1β mRN A and IL-1β content were decreased in R0.50 group,and the healing time and length of the incision were prolonged,the fibroblast counts and expression of collagen were decreased,and the expression of IL-1β mRNA and IL-1β content were decreased in R0.75 group (P < 0.05).Compared with R0.20 group,the healing time and length of the incision were significantly shortened,the fibroblast counts and expression of collagen were increased,and the expression of IL-1β mRNA and IL-1β content were decreased in group R0.50,the healing time and length of the incision were significantly prolonged,the fibroblast counts and expression of collagen were decreased,and the expression of IL-1β mRNA and IL-1β content were decreased in group R0.75 (P < 0.05).Compared with R0.50 group,the healing time and length of the incision were significantly prolonged,the fibroblast counts and expression of collagen were decreased,and the expression of IL-1β mRNA and IL-1β content were decreased in group R0.75 group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Local infiltration anesthesia with 0.20% and 0.50% ropivacaine can promote the healing of incision in rats,0.50% ropivacaine provides better efficacy than 0.20% ropivacaine,and 0.75 % ropivacaine can inhibit the healing process.
