We hypothesize that intravenous lidocaine infusion may have beneficial effect to patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries in Trendelenburg position by preventing ICP elevation.
Lidocaine use, both intravenous (IV) and laryngotracheal (LT), has been reported to blunt the ICP elevations during intubation. Also, Lidocaine injected IV has been shown in models to induce cerebral vasoconstriction leading to a decrease in cerebral blood volume and thus ICP. Furthermore, IV lidocaine leads to sodium channel inhibition and thus a reduction in cerebral activity and metabolic demands, as well as excitotoxicity, leading to a potential ICP reduction effect.
