prolongs LA

ion trapping

ie acidosis
What is the order of systemic toxicity with LA
Analgesia + lightheadedness

What are 3 factors that increase the likelihood of CNS toxicity
acidosis
hypercarbia
hyperkalemia
How can you decrease the incidence of LA toxicity pharmacologically
barbiturates
BZD
epinephrine
At what site do you see the highest incidence of CNS toxicity with LA
peripheral
What are drug and metabolic conditions that can increase the risk for developing LA toxicity
B-blockers, digoxin, Ca channel block
hypoxia
hypercarbia
acidosis

How is LA potency r/t toxicity
usually more potent is less toxic because of less diffusion

do not allow pt to become hypoxic/hypercarbic
treat with Benzos and barbiturates
give sch to stop muscle contraction
