Effectiveness

How Sensorcaine Affects PatientsBupivacaine is a common local anesthetic used in surgeries. It can help reduce pain for up to 20 hours after surgery. Compared to other local anesthetics, bupivacaine has a long duration of action. However, it can also be toxic to the heart when taken in large doses, so other medications like ropivacaine and levobupivacaine are often used as alternatives. Taking bupivacaine can cause changes to the cardiovascular and nervous systems, including decreased blood pressure and cardiac conduction, and can even lead to cardiac arrest. Additionally, it may cause central nervous system stimulation

How Sensorcaine works in the bodyBupivacaine is an anesthetic that works by blocking nerve impulses from reaching the brain. It does this by blocking sodium ions from passing through the neuron’s pore, which prevents neurotransmission. Its effects are felt in order of pain, temperature, touch, proprioception, and then muscle tone. In addition to blocking nerve impulses, bupivacaine is also thought to reduce inflammation and fever by binding to receptors that reduce prostaglandin production.

Sensorcaine Toxicity & Overdose RiskThe average amount of bupivacaine that causes seizures in monkeys is 4.4mg/kg, with an average concentration of 4.5mcg/mL in their bloodstream. The most toxic dose for mice is 6-8mg/kg when given intravenously, and 38-54mg/kg when given subcutaneously. People who experience seizures from bupivacaine will quickly develop breathing problems and acidosis, so it is important to provide them with oxygen right away to prevent cardiac arrest.
