Official title
Determining Plasma Bupivacaine Levels Following Pectoral Nerve Blocks: A Prospective Observational Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine peak plasma bupivacaine concentrations in a similar fashion for PECS I/II blocks. The investigators hypothesis is that the mean peak plasma levels for patients undergoing PECS I/II blocks will be less than the levels reported to cause early neurotoxicity of \[2.2 (0.9) micrograms/ml\]6 in patients receiving intravenous bupivacaine infusions.
