• LA are agents which produce reversible block of nerve conduction without any structural damage to the neuron concerned and without any loss of consciousness.
• local anesthetics are used to block all sensation in the part supplied by the nerve.

• Most local anesthetic agents consist of a lipophilic group (eg, an aromatic ring) connected by an intermediate chain via an ester or amide to an ionizable group (eg, a tertiary amine)

CLASSIFICATION
• ESTER TYPE -COCAINE, TETRACAINE, PROCAINE,
BENZOCAINE etc . AMIDE TYPE -LIDOCAINE, BUPIVACAINE, PRILOCAINE,
DIBUCAINE etc.

MECHANISM OF ACTION
Sensory information passes along nerve fibers via electrical impulse, or action potential.
When nerve is at rest , the interior has a negative charge. An action potential is generated by the influx of Na ions in to
the interior of the nerve, giving it a positive charge-Depolarization
The nerve fiber is returned to its resting potential by efflux of k ions- repolarization.
The action potential is then generated along the axon by successive depolarization & repolarization of adjacent regions.

• The primary mechanism of action of local anesthetics is blockade of voltage-gated sodium channels .
• Bind to receptors near the intracellular end of the voltage gated Na channels.
• This reduce the permeability of cell membrane to Na ions , so action potential is not generated.

USES• FOREIGN BODY REMOVAL• A drop of LA will make location & removal of
the offending object very much easier.• TONOMETRY• Topical anesthesia is essential for the
assessment of IOP• CONTACT LENS FITTING- eye impressions for
the constriction of scleral lenses• Certain diagnostic procedures: LA are used
before a schirmer test of lacrimal function.

PharmacokineticsABSORPTIONSystemic absorption of injected local anesthetic
from the site of administration is determined by several factors, including dosage, site of injection, drug-tissue binding, local blood flow
• Application of a local anesthetic to a highly vascular area such as the tracheal mucosa or the tissue surrounding intercostal nerves results in more rapid absorption
![Page 11: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
DISTRIBUTION• The amide local anesthetics are widely
distributed after intravenous bolus administration.
• After an initial rapid distribution phase, which consists of uptake into highly perfused organs such as the brain, liver, kidney, and heart, a slower distribution phase occurs with uptake into moderately well-perfused tissues, such as muscle and the gastrointestinal tract.

METABOLISM AND EXCRETION• The local anesthetics are converted in the liver
(amide type) or in plasma (ester type) to more water-soluble metabolites and then excreted in the urine.
• Ester type LA is metabolized by pseudocholinesterase and amide type by hepatic microsomal enzymes and enzyme amidase.

SIDE EFFECTS• Cardiovascular -depression of heart, bradycardia, hypotension,
cardiac arrhythmias etc. CNS -rapid absorption produce restlessness, tremor,
convulsions. Anaphylactic reaction-common with ester type.-causes asthma, dermatitis, skin rash etc.

• Corneal change-very rarely reversible corneal change may occur.

ROUTES OF APPLICATION
• SURFACE ANAESTHESIA-Most popular method in ophthalmology.-lignocaine 4% is used .INFILTRATION ANESTHESIA Nerve endings are anaesthetized by direct
exposure to drug. Drug is infiltrated subcutaneouslyProcaine [2%] and lignocaine [2%] used.
![Page 16: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
NERVE BLOCK ANAESTHESIADrug is injected very close to nerve eg; brachial
plexus.SPINAL ANAESTHESIADrug is injected to the subarachnoid spaces.Eg; procaine and lignocaine.EPIDURAL ANAESTHESIADrug is injected outside the dura.
![Page 17: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Commonly used drug with LA Adrenaline –to prolong the effect of LA and to
reduce the toxicity by reducing absorption from local area.
Hyaluronidase-enzyme which cause depolymerization of hyaluronic acid and increase the permeability of injected fluid.
![Page 18: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
TETRACAINE [Amethocaine] Topical anaesthetic [0.5%] in ophthalmic
practice. Onset of action is 30 minutes. Side effects-stinging sensation, punctate ,drug
allergy.
![Page 19: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PROPARACAINETopical anaesthetic. [0.75%]Onset of action-30 sec
COCAINEFirst local anaesthetic obtained from leaves of
plant Erythroxylon Coca.It is no more in use nowadays because of its
corneal toxicity, addicting nature etc.
![Page 20: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
PROCAINE• First synthetic local anaesthetic• Used as a small area infiltration and spinal
anaesthetic.• It is poorly absorbed from mucous membrane-
so no topical use.• 2% injection is the usual preparation.
![Page 21: Local anasthetic](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070603/586e73181a28ab99598b5349/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
LIGNOCAINE Most commonly used LA In ophthalmology 4% [topical] and 2%
[infiltration] solutions are commonly used. It has quick onset of action and high degree of
penetration. The drug is recommended for topical, nerve
block, infiltration and epidural injection and for dental analgesia.
It may cause drowsiness.

BUPIVACAINE• Onset of action is slow• A 0.75% solution produce anaesthesia and
akinesia for 8-12 hours.• In ophthalmic practice, usually a combination
of 2% lignocaine,0.75% bupivacaine and 7.5 TRU of hyaluronidase is used for periocular injection, and surgery of any kind may be performed on such type of anaesthetized eye.
