Additional history we found in the medical record:
Patient with seizures and rapidly declining mental status after local anesthetic (mepivicaine) injected for dental procedure
INTRAVASCULAR LIPID ADMINISTRATION
• Lipid infusions increasingly being used to treat local
anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST)
• Possible antidotal effect of intravenous lipid emulsion
on action of lipophilic drugs, including local
anesthetics, first discovered in 1962
• First case reports of success in human in 2006 • Controversial, however, as efficacy and safety not clearly proven
Lipid Rescue - Efficacy and Safety Still Unproven. Höjer J, Jacobsen D, Neuvonen PJ, Rosenberg PH. Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol. 2016 May 2. doi: 10.1111/bcpt.12607. [Epub] PMID: 27136445
