Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Previous studies in dogs have demonstrated that massive doses of intravenous lidocaine (160 mg X kg-1) can inhibit cerebral oxygen metabolism to a greater degree when administered with pentobarbital than can pentobarbital alone. From these data, it was hypothesized that lidocaine decreases cerebral metabolism by two means: suppression of cortical electrical activity and stabilization of neuronal membranes, and it was suggested that lidocaine might provide protection for the ischemic brain. In an attempt to apply this property clinically, the effect of a lower, clinically tolerated dose of lidocaine (15 mg X kg-1) on cerebral oxygen metabolism and cerebral blood flow was examined in dogs receiving deep isoflurane anesthesia. Once maximal metabolic suppression, as reflected by an isoelectric EEG, was achieved with isoflurane (3% end-expired), the administration of this dose of lidocaine had little effect on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral oxygen consumption (CMRO2). The CBF was 94 +/- 19 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1 during 3% isoflurane anesthesia, and was 102 +/- 11 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1 with the addition of lidocaine. The CMRO2 was 2.32 +/- 0.23 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1 during isoflurane anesthesia, and was 2.18 +/- 0.09 ml X min-1 X 100 g-1 following the administration of lidocaine. However, this dose of lidocaine did produce a derangement of cerebral metabolites. The cerebral concentration of ATP during 3% isoflurane anesthesia was 2.07 +/- 0.04 mumol X g-1 (cerebral ATP in normal unanesthetized dogs is 2.01 +/- 0.01 mumol X g-1).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
