Efficacy of low dose levobupivacaine (0.1%) for axillary plexus block using multiple nerve stimulation
Anesthesia and Intensive Care, 02/12/09
Complete sensory block was obtained in 94.4% of patients receiving 36 ml of levobupivacaine 0.1%, 92.1% of those receiving 72 ml of levobupivacaine 0.1%, and 97.1% of those receiving 36 ml of levobupivacaine 0.25%. There was no significant difference either in the onset of the sensory and motor block or duration of the sensory and motor block. This study demonstrates that 36 ml of levobupivacaine 0.1% (36 mg) is as effective as higher doses and volumes in axillary brachial plexus blockade.
