Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of Intraperitoneal Chloroprocaine After Fetal Extraction in Women Undergoing Cesarean Delivery

AUTHORS: Togioka, Brandon M. MD et al  Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 4 – p 777-786 BACKGROUND: Intraperitoneal chloroprocaine has been used during cesarean delivery to supplement suboptimal neuraxial anesthesia for decades. The short in vitro half-life of chloroprocaine (11–21 seconds) has been cited to support the safety of this approach. […]
