The effects of ketamine and lidocaine on free radical production after tourniquet-induced ischemia-reperfusion injury in adults.

CONCLUSION: The administration of both ketamine and lidocaine infusions significantly decreased skeletal muscle IRI-related high lactate and IMA levels. These results suggest the possibility of the clinical application of ketamine or lidocaine infusions in cases of skeletal muscle-related IRI. PMID: 30892676 [PubMed - in process]
