Abstract
The aim of this study is to find out the neuroprotective mechanism of lidocaine in epidural haematoma (EDH) in moderate brain injury. The effects are measured by the level of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and phospholipase A2. (PLA2).
This siudy is done in forty epidural haematoma patients with moderate brain injury. The objects are divided into
two groups, group A with NaCI 0.9% infusion only (control) and group B with NaCI 0.9% infusion combined with
lidocaine 1 mg/kg/hr. The blood samples were taken right before induction and two hours after infusion.
The result shows that the level of IL-6 and PLA2 is significantly low in group B (p<0.005) with Mann Whitney
and Dependent t test. The decreasing level of IL-6 and PLA2 is related with the dose of lidocaine. The inhibition
mechanism of IL-6 and PLA2 secretion by lidocaine is considered as a responsible factor in inflammation and brain
cells damage. .
Summary
• Infusion of lidocaine 1 mg/kg/hr will decrease the level of IL-6 in moderate brain injury
• Infusion of lidocaine 1 mg/kg/hr will decrease the level of PLA2 in moderate brain injury
