abstract：:Controversy persists about the cardiac toxicity of bupivacaine if accidentally administered intravenously during regional anesthesia. Using awake, unanesthetized sheep, we evaluated the cardiac effects of low and high equivalent doses of lidocaine and bupivacaine given intravenously over 10 s. All animals convulsed wi...
