Ropivacaine Hydrochloride

Orchiectomy is a common surgical procedure performed on small animals, and it requires postoperative pain management despite its relative simplicity. This study aimed to evaluate the hemodynamic stability, intraoperative administration of additional hypnotic and/or analgesic drugs, and postoperative pain scores following the combination of ultrasound-guided injection of ropivacaine hydrochloride into the spermatic cord and infiltration by the same anaesthetic of the incisional prescrotal line (ROP) or general anaesthesia. Dogs in the ROP group showed greater intraoperative hemodynamic stability and lower pain scores than the control group. The locoregional approach used in this study proved effective in minimising the responses to the surgical stimulus and ensured adequate analgesia intra- and postoperatively. This method, called ultrasound-guided funicular block, allows orchiectomy to be performed under deep sedation without general anaesthesia.

Ropivacaine Hydrochloride

Background For local anesthetics, the process of removal from the site of administration influences the duration of anesthesia and the risk for systemic toxicity to develop. The systemic absorption of epidural ropivacaine and the time profile of sensory and motor block were studied in healthy volunteers. Methods Nine persons simultaneously received 150 mg ropivacaine hydrochloride (7.5 mg/ml) epidurally and 40 mg deuterium-labeled (2H3)ropivacaine hydrochloride (0.25 mg/ml) intravenously. Peripheral arterial and venous plasma samples were collected, and assessments of sensory and motor block were made. Results The arterial plasma concentrations increased faster than the venous concentrations, with 50% higher maximum concentrations after both intravenous and epidural administration. The absorption was biphasic. A correlation was seen between the duration of sensory block and the slower absorption half-life; that is, the longer the half-life, the longer the duration. The extent of spread varied among the volunteers, with the median upper block level not exceeding T12. The motor block (Bromage score 1) was of slower onset (median, 0.4 h) and of shorter duration (median, 4.1 h) than the sensory block (onset, 0.2 h; duration, 6.5 h at L2 medians). Conclusions As much as 50% differences were seen in the arteriovenous plasma concentrations of ropivacaine during the first hour, which has implications for the interpretation of systemic toxic plasma concentrations. The absorption into the general circulation was biphasic, with a correlation between the sensory block and the slower absorption half-life. A faster onset and a longer duration of sensory compared with motor block was seen.

Objective: To investigate whether CaMKⅡα participates in the dorsal root ganglion neurotoxicity induced by ropivacaine hydrochloride. Methods: DRG neurons were isolated from 1-day-old SD rats and cultured in vitro. pAd-shRNA-CaMKⅡα-DRG cells were constructed by RNA interference technique to inhibit the expression of CaMKⅡα. The experiment was divided into six groups: DRG group (DRG group), vector DRG group (vector group), pAd-shRNA- CaMKIIα-DRG group (pAd-shRNA group), DRG + ropivacaine group (DRG + R group), vector DRG + ropivacaine group (vector + R group), pAd-shRNA-CaMKII α - DRG + ropivacaine group (pAd-shRNA + R group), and the last three groups were treated with 3 mM ropivacaine hydrochloride for 4 hours. MTT assay was used to detect cell viability, flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis rate, laser confocal microscopy was used to detect intracellular calcium level, and real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of CaMKⅡα, Cav3.2 and Cav3.3. Results: The cell viability of DRG+R group, vector+R group and pAd-shRNA+R group decreased significantly after 3 mM ropivacaine hydrochloride treatment for 4 h. Compared with DRG+R group, the cell viability of pAd-shRNA+R group was significantly higher. After 3 mM ropivacaine hydrochloride treatment for 4 h, the apoptosis rate of DRG + R group, vector + R group and pAd-shRNA + R group increased significantly. Compared with DRG+R group, the apoptosis rate in pAd shRNA+R group was significantly lower. After 3 mM ropivacaine hydrochloride treatment for 4 h, the intracellular calcium levels in DRG + R group, vector + R group and pAd-shRNA + R group were significantly increased, and the intracellular calcium levels in pAd-shRNA + R group were significantly lower than those in DRG + R group. The mRNA expressions of CaMKⅡα, Cav3.2 and Cav3.3 were significantly decreased in pAd- shRNA group. The mRNA expressions of CaMK Ⅱ α, Cav3.2 and Cav3.3 were up-regulated in DRG + R group, vector + R group and pAd-shRNA + R group after 3 mm ropivacaine treatment for 4 h. The mRNA expressions of CaMKⅡα, Cav3.2 and Cav3.3 in pAd-shRNA + R group were significantly lower than those in DRG + R group. Conclusion: Inhibition of CaMKⅡα expression can down regulate the expression of Cav3.2 and Cav3.3 mRNA, increase cell viability of DRG neurons, reduce the apoptosis rate, and improve the dorsal root ganglion neurotoxicity induced by ropivacaine hydrochloride.
