To investigate whether a 2% lidocaine addition to 0.5% bupivacaine that is used in a lateral sagittal infraclavicular block, when administered in an upper extremity surgery, decreases the block onset time, drug effect time, and drug activity when compared with bupivacaine alone. Materials and methods: This study was performed on 120 American Society of Anesthesiology classification I-II patients who were 18–65 years old and scheduled to undergo an upper extremity surgery. The group testing in the study was as follows: 20 mL (5 mg/mL) bupivacaine, 10 mL (5 mg/mL) bupivacaine + 10 mL (20 mg/mL) lidocaine, and 20 mL (20 …

To compare the anesthetic effectiveness of epidural levobupivacaine and bupivacaine without adjuvant medication in patients who were to have elective operations on the lower extremities and hips. Materials and methods: This study was conducted on a total of 70 ASA I-II patients aged between 30 and 70 years, who underwent elective hip and lower extremity operations. The patients that received bupivacaine were assigned to Group B (n = 35) and those that received levobupivacaine to Group L (n = 35). Results: No statistically significant difference was found between the groups in terms of the onset and regression times of the …
