| Abstract | PURPOSE: Ropivacaine-induced vasoconstriction may affect the early absorption speed of ropivacaine; however, the effects of dose on pharmacokinetics following transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block have not been studied. In this study, we have examined plasma ropivacaine concentrations following TAP block with various ropivacaine concentrations (0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 %). METHODS: With the approval of our University ethics committee and informed consent, 39 adult patients undergoing open retropubic prostatectomy were enrolled. Patients were randomly assigned to three groups (n = 13 each) receiving TAP block with 20 ml (10 ml each side) of different concentrations of ropivacaine. To determine plasma concentrations, blood samples were drawn before and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, and 180 min after completion of bilateral TAP blocks. Plasma ropivacaine concentrations were analyzed by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. RESULTS: We found that the peak plasma concentrations (C(max)) increased dose dependently (0.41 ± 0.14, 0.89 ± 0.55, and 1.56 ± 0.50 µg/ml), but the times to C(max) (23.0 ± 15.8, 23.1 ± 14.5, and 20.8 ± 11.5 min) were not different between 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 % ropivacaine doses, respectively. Terminal elimination half-life (t(1/2)), total body clearance (CL), and distribution volume (V(d)) were also not different among the three groups. CONCLUSION: Ropivacaine concentration did not alter pharmacokinetic profile following TAP blocks. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
