Pharmacokinetic of levobupivacaïne After Sciatic Nerve Block in Children

August 27, 2014 updated by: Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille
Levobupivacaïne (Chirocaine®) is a new local anaesthetic recently marketed in France. The goal of this prospective work is to study the pharmacokinetic aspect of this drug after injection around the sciatic nerve (subgluteal way).

Detailed Description

The originality of this work is to call upon a modelling of pharmacokinetic by using the principle of the pharmacology of population.

This work also proposes to appreciate a dynamic aspect since data of effectiveness and tolerance will be collected with regular intervals during the first 24 hours after the beginning of the study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The purpose of this work is to describe the pharmacokinetics characteristics by the levobupivacaine after peripheral block by using the principle of the pharmacology of population, this allowing fewer sampling of blood by patients.
