OBJECTIVE: To determine the efficacy and safety of intravenous single dose lidocaine versus single dose propofol in controlling emergence agitation in children aged 2-6 years old for surgery under sevoflurane anesthesia in Philippine Children’s Medical Center. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a double-blind, randomized controlled trial of 64 children aged 2-6 years who had surgery under general anesthesia using sevoflurane. Patients were randomly assigned into 2 equal groups – the experimental (Lidocaine, L) group and the control (Propofol, P) group. Five (5) minutes prior to the discontinuation of sevoflurane, the patient assigned to the L group was given Lidocaine at 1.5 mg/kg IV while the patient assigned to the P group was given Propofol 1 mg/kg IV. Patients were monitored using Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) and Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, and Consolability (FLACC) scales 5 minutes after giving the medication until discharge from the PACU. Data was collected using a data abstraction form. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in terms of emergence agitation (RR= 0.5, 95% CI [0.098, 2.54], pvalue= 0.672) and post- operative pain (RR:0.6, 95% CI [0.033, 1.91], pvalue = 0.426). No adverse events were observed in both groups. CONCLUSION Both Lidocaine and Propofol are effective in preventing emergence agitation.

BACKGROUND: Many trials have been conducted on the prevention of pain induced by intravenous rocuronium. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of lidocaine preinjection compared with rocuronium premixed with lidocaine in minimizing pain on injection. METHODS: Seventy five patients, ASA physical status I or II, were randomly allocated to one of three groups. In the control group (n = 25), patients received saline 3 ml, followed 20 slater by rocuronium (0.6 mg/kg) only. In the lidocaine premixture group (PM, n = 25), normal saline 3 ml and rocuronium(0.6 mg/kg) premixed with lidocaine 30 mg were given intravenously, and in the lidocaine preinjection group (PI, n = 25), lidocaine 30 mg was administered before injection of rocuronium (0.6 mg/kg). Pain was assessed verbally as none, mild, moderate, and severe by the same observer. RESULTS: There was a significant reduction in the incidence and severity of pain in the PI group. Only 6 patients (24%) in the PI group experienced pain as compared to 16 patients (64%) in the PM group and 22 patients (88%) in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Lidocaine 30 mg given before the administration of rocuronium significantly reduced the incidence and severity of rocuronium induced pain. But, lidocaine rocuronium premixtures did not significantly reduce the incidence of pain.

Study on patients from 30-80 years old who get pain caused by injuries in muscle, vertebral muscle-ligament; some diseases as gout, rheumatic arthritis, gastric-duodenal ulcer, vasomotor disorder… The patients were given lidocain hydroaccupuncture and vitamins B1, B6, B12 at spots corresponding to the pain or to neurological sections of the pain. Results showed that this method had effectiveness on objective pain, reduced or killed the pain, reduced the disorder caused by pain. With the entity injuries, this method assisted the body respond better with specific treatment drug

Since 1975, lidocaine has been made up in Friendship hospital with the name rythmocardyl as a dissoluble tablet in the bowels. The magistral formula and processing procedures have been studied and tested to reach the VNP II - 1994 and BP-1993 standards. The lethal dosage (LD50), the anti - ventricular fibrillation and anti-arrhythmic effects, the blood concentration of lidocaine taken orally at different times as well as the dissolution of rythmocardyl in the human body have been tested experimentally. The research have proven that lidocaine, taken orally has few side effects and is safe and effective to treat the cardiac arrhythmia, notably the ventricular extrasystoles
