15. DIFFERENTIALS
Local Anesthetic Systemic Toxicity (LAST)
Total Spinal Anesthesia following Peripheral Nerve Block
Brachial Plexus Injury resulting to Horner’s Syndrome
17. Local Anesthetic Systemic Toxicity
• Local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST) is a life-threatening
adverse event associated with the increasingly prevalent
utilization of local anesthetic (LA) techniques throughout various
health care settings, with an incidence currently estimated to be
0.03%, or 0.27 episodes per 1,000 peripheral nerve blocks.
18. • Increasing plasma concentrations of LA initially compromises
cortical inhibitory pathways by blockade of NaV channels,
disrupting inhibitory neuron depolarization. Inhibiting these
pathways leads to excitatory clinical features of sensory and visual
changes, muscular activation, and subsequent seizure activity. As
the plasma concentrations of LA rise, excitatory pathways are
affected, producing a depressive phase of neurological toxicity,
with loss of consciousness, coma, and respiratory arrest.
19.
20. • The multitude of aforementioned LA molecular targets produces
complex toxic features in the CVS, including conduction
disturbances, myocardial dysfunction, and lability of peripheral
vascular tone. The primary effects are likely to arise from rhythm
disturbance, with other CVS effects being secondary. Normal
conduction is disrupted by direct sodium channel blockade, chiefly
at the bundle of His. By driving the resting membrane potential to
a more negative level, action potential propagation is impaired,
leading to prolonged PR, QRS, and ST intervals. Re-entrant
tachyarrhythmias and bradyarrhythmias ensue, which may be
worsened by further potassium channel blockade, prolonging the
QT interval.
21. • Although 40% of LAST presents atypically, CNS toxicity is the most common
feature of LAST (68%–77%), primarily in the form of seizures. Diverse early
manifestations have been described (although many are likely
underreported), and may include perioral paresthesia, confusion, audio–
visual disturbances, dysgeusia, agitation, or reduced level of consciousness.
One-third of the reported cases of LAST begin with CNS features that progress
to involve CVS signs, and one-fifth of LAST episodes present with isolated CVS
disturbances. Again, protean features of CVS toxicity are apparent, but
dysrhythmias, conduction deficits, hypotension, and eventually cardiac arrest
– most commonly of an asystolic nature – may be seen. LAST events most
frequently occur immediately following injection of LA, and recent data
demonstrate that delayed presentation may occur at various time points up to
several days following commencement of an infusion.
22.
23. Total Spinal Anesthesia
• Total spinal anesthesia (TSA) results in respiratory depression,
cardiovascular compromise, and loss of consciousness. This may
or may not be preceded by numbness, paresthesia, or weakness of
the upper limb; shortness of breath; nausea; or anxiety.
• It can happen during epidural anesthesia, caudal anesthesia, spinal
anesthesia, paravertebral block, stellate ganglion block,
interscalene brachial blocks, and other regional anesthesia
techniques performed at or near to the vertebral column. The
clinical manifestations are often characterized by a sudden
decrease in blood pressure, rapidly increasing motor block,
temporary loss of breathing, loss of consciousness, dilated pupils,
apnea, and even cardiac arrest
24. • Before complete spinal block patients often complain and manifest
different clinical features, often depending on the level of spreads
of local anesthetics agents. Hypotension with or without
bradycardia is due to venous and arterial vasodilation resulting in
a reduced venous return, cardiac output, and systemic vascular
resistance, and due to direct blockage of the cardio accelerating
fibers (T1-T4). Patients often complain mild shortness of breath
secondary to blockade of abdominal and intercostal respiratory
accessory muscles (T1-T12) and numbness or weakness in the
arms, shoulders, and trunk (C5-T1), followed by nausea, with or
without vomiting secondary to cerebral hypotension, respiratory
arrest secondary to diaphragmatic paralysis (C3-C5), and loss of
consciousness (brainstem). Cardiac arrest may occur due to
hypotension and hypoxemia or unopposed vagal dominance
25. • Management comprises; reassurance, supplemental oxygen
(intubation if required to support oxygenation and ventilation or
for loss of airway reflexes), and IV fluid administration plus
vasopressors such as ephedrine or phenylephrine (adrenaline may
be required) to support maternal blood pressure. Early
recognition is vital, as block progression may be mitigated by
adjusting the patient’s position. If total spinal anesthesia occurs,
placing the patient in a Trendelenburg position will increase
venous return and improve cardiac output.
26. Brachial Plexus Injury
• The brachial plexus is a bundle of nerves that stems from nerve
roots in the cervical (neck) and upper trunk (torso) sections of the
spinal cord (C5-T1), creating a network that connects to the
nerves in the arm. These nerves control the motions of your
wrists, hands and arms, allowing you to raise your arm, type on
your keyboard or throw a baseball.
27. • From the roots, the brachial plexus nerves branch and fuse
through the shoulder and down the arm, classified into a few
different sections: trunks, divisions, cords and branches.
• The brachial plexus ends in five major nerve branches that extend
down the arm:
• Musculocutaneous nerve: Originates from nerve roots C5-C7 and flexes
muscles in the upper arm, at both the shoulder and elbow.
• Axillary nerve: Stems from nerve roots C5 and C6; it helps the shoulder
rotate and enables the arm to lift away from the body.
• Median nerve: Starts in nerve roots C6-T1 and enables movement in the
forearm and parts of the hand.
• Radial nerve: Begins in nerve roots C5-T1 and controls various muscles
in the upper arm, elbow, forearm and hand.
• Ulnar nerve: Rooted in C8-T1, it allows for fine motor control of the
fingers
28. • Common symptoms of brachial plexus injuries are:
• Numbness or loss of feeling in the hand or arm.
• Inability to control or move the shoulder, arm, wrist or hand.
• An arm that hangs limply.
• Burning, stinging or severe and sudden pain in the shoulder or
arm.
• Some brachial plexus injuries can result in Horner’s syndrome, a
disorder in which certain nerves of the sympathetic nervous
system are damaged. This syndrome can lead to a drooping eyelid,
overly constricted pupil and decreased facial sweating on one side
of the face. There is no specific treatment for Horner’s syndrome,
but sometimes treating its underlying cause may help to alleviate
symptoms.
29.
30. • Horner's syndrome may correspond to a diffusion of local
anesthetics in prevertebral spaces ultimately involving the
sympathetic nerves and communicating with cervical nerve
trunks. It results from paralysis of the ipsilateral sympathetic
cervical chain (stellate ganglion) caused by surgery, drugs (mainly
high concentrations of local anesthetics), local compression
(hematoma or tumor), or inadequate perioperative positioning of
the patient
• Interscalene and supraclavicular blocks of the brachial plexus are
the main anesthetic techniques associated with this syndrome
• Causes of Horner's syndrome are large accumulation of local
anesthetic solution or the atypical proximal migration of the
solution above the clavicle toward the supraclavicular
paravertebral area.
Editor's Notes
Patient wheeled-in @ Room 5 (Main OR)
Patient came in GCS 15 (E4V5M6) awake & conversant Monitors attached prior to induction
Baseline VS BP 120/70, CR 90s, RR 20s, afebrile, 99% O2sat
Midazolam was given for anxiolysis Fentanyl & Propofol was given as induction meds
Atracurium was then given as muscle relaxant (slow induction)
Patient was then intubated with ET size 7.0, level 22cm, cuffed, attached to SCCS w CO2 absorber w equal breath sounds
Patient was maintained on Sevoflurane @ 2.5 vol %
Fentanyl 25mcg given prior to cutting
Paracetamol 1gm IV & Tranexamic acid 1gm IV was then given
OR duration: approx 5hrs (uneventful intraop)
Intraop VS BP 100-120/60-80, CR 80-90s, afebrile, 100% O2sat
Total Blood Loss: ~500cc
Total fluids/blood products infused: PLR 1.7L + WB 495cc UO: ~700cc (0.3cc/kg/hr)
Ketorolac 30mg IV given upon closing
Patient was breathing spontaneously thereafter, assisted bagging was also done
*Dr. Kilayko arrived at the OR 1hr prior to closing, at around 3pm right after closing, we prepared the meds and UTZ device for PNB, Ropivacaine 0.5% 10cc + 10cc PNSS in 20cc syringe was used as the local anesthetic. UTZ device was used in infiltrating the brachial plexus thru supraclavicular approach. Patient had good anatomy on UTZ however we noticed some hematoma maybe due to the manipulation of the surgeon in the said procedure.
Brachial plexus successfully infiltrated with local anesthetic.
Supraclavicular block was done
VS post PNB: BP 80-90/50-60, CR 80s, 100% O2sat, afebrile
Sevo @ 2 vol % and was then decreased eventually due to hypotensive episodes. Ephedrine 10mg IV was then given and BP was increased eventually
Patient was breathing spontaneously post PNB however became apneic after the Sevo was shut off (around 3-5mins), controlled bagging was started with O2 @ 10lpm.
Norepinephrine infusion was started thereafter.
We checked the pupils of the patient and it turned out to be dilating gradually and eventually fully dilated, px was then unarousable (GCS 3, E1VtM1)
Train of Four was used with 89-100% with 3 tries (no residual muscular blockade)
Naloxone was also used as a reversal to rule out opioid toxicity, however patient did not respond
After an hour, patient was still unarousable, neurosurgery was then called for attention, the neurosurgeon assessed the patient however accdg to them there is a possibilty that patient sustained a bleed. (Intraop there was no hypertensive episodes)
We decided to bring the patient to the CT scan section... upon bringing the patient to the CT scan, we noticed that the patient was gradually moving his arms and legs and eventually woke up and became conscious (GCS 11, E4VtM6)
CT scan results showed normal results, no infarcts or bleed found.
Patient was then transferred to PACU, after few hours, patient was self extubated with no DOB and desaturations, patient was hooked to O2 face mask @ 10 lpm
Patient was eventually transferred to ward
Patient was eventually discharged by main service on post-op day 5
