a) slower onset b) faster onset c) less synovial inflammation d) stronger mucosal actions |
a) slower onset
c) less synovial inflammation |
|
Which of following are correct regarding lidocaine?
a) slower onset b) faster onset c) less synovial inflammation d) stronger mucosal actions |
b) faster onset
d) stronger mucosal actions |
|
For the following say if it is bupivicaine, mepivicaine, or lidocaine.
a) prolonged duration (5-6 hrs) b) longer duration (1/5-2 hr) c) less duration (30 min) |
a) prolonged duration (5-6 hrs) = bupivacaine
b) longer duration (1/5-2 hr)= mepivacaine c) less duration (30 min)= lidocaine |
