Summary

Lidocaine is widely available and is a very commonly used local anesthetic. When administered intravenously, lidocaine infusions have anti-inflammatory effects and have significantly decreased the reliance on opioid use for adequate pain management in adult abdominal and spine surgeries. A major advantage of lidocaine infusion is that it is not associated with a significant side effect profile.The role of lidocaine in pediatric acute perioperative pain remains limited.
