Haemodynamic effects of bupivacaine-containing lipid solution and its CAE in vivo and in isolated hearts. a and b, In in vivo models, we randomly administered 3 mg kg−1 bupivacaine in normal saline (NS), CAE of bupivacaine-containing 20% lipid emulsion (CAE of 20% lipid) or 3 mg kg−1 bupivacaine in 20% lipid emulsion (20% lipid) at an infusion volume of 7 ml kg−1 through the left internal jugular vein for 1 min. Data are the maximal decreases during the first 15 min of administration. c and d, In isolated heart models, we sequentially perfused 30 µM bupivacaine in Krebs-Henseleit buffer (KHB), CAE of bupivacaine-containing 2% lipid solution (CAE of 2% lipid), and 30 µM bupivacaine in 2% lipid solution (2% lipid) for 15 min each, at a constant perfusion pressure of 70 mm Hg. Data are expressed as means (sd) (n=6 for each in vivo, and n=5 in isolated hearts). **P<0.01, *** P<0.0001, †P<0.05, ††P<0.01, †††P< vs NS or KHB, N.S., not significant.
