Hypoperfusion in response to epinephrine in local anaesthetics : Investigation of dependence on epinephrine concentration, spread of hypoperfusion and time to maximal cutaneous vasoconstriction
Objectives: The present study aimed to examine hypoperfusion in response to epinephrine following the administration of a local anaesthetic. The . concentration of epinephrine that causes maximal hypoperfusion, the . spread of hypoperfusion in the tissue and the . time to the stabilization of hypoperfusion were investigated. Methods: Blood perfusion was monitored using laser Doppler velocimetry an
