Lidocaine and bupivacaine as part of multimodal pain management in a C57BL/6J laparotomy mouse model

Abstract While the use of local anesthesia as part of multimodal pain management is common practice in human and veterinarian surgery, these drugs are not applied routinely in rodent surgery. Several recommendations on the use of local anesthesia exist, but systematic studies on their efficacy and s...
