Its weird I'm not a doctor of any kind but I still find myself watching these videos and buying practice suture kits then i sit around suturing for no reason except boredom. I guess if for some reason the world ends and people need stiches I'll be an expert lol since I can now do about every kind of stich there is and from the looks.of my stiches when finished it looks better than most doctors doing it on youtube. Guess that's probably because there not sitting around suturing for 6 hours a day there actual doctors and have a lot more to learn and are to busy to practice sutures all day lol but hey it's fun and very interesting. I think I have watched every surgery and suture video on youtube. Within a few years I'll be an expert brain/heart surgeon that has never done any surgery in my life. lol but I can tell you step by step what to do what it should look like and what to look for if something isn't right. I guess I should have went to med school. It is very interesting i could learn surgery every day and be happy as ever it is just so fascinating and so much fun to learn and watch.

I had a dentist one time inject lidocaine in my jaw as he went... He's inject, wait, jiggle (slightly bump almost like tapping) needle, advance, inject, wait, jiggle, advance, inject, wait, jiggle and I literally didn't feel him inject anything even though it was deep into my jaw on inside of my mouth. Was truly a work of art.

Great instructional video . I usually enter the skin from one side and advance to the other end of laceration and inject as i retract, after negative aspiration, so there's no need to redirect the needle.

Super awesome stuff, man. I think the logic of not being in a vessel is that, in that circumstance, your lidocaine leaves the area where you want its action. Certainly, it can be used for arrhythmias, but it would take a MUCH larger dose to be problematic. Even a little of the 1:100,000 epi in a vessel would be alright. Either way, super informative video, brother! Thanks for your time!

Do you have a reference regarding what doses are risky? Would be interesting to see what the details are.

I did my first lidocaine injection today 😁

Rotating the needle from the same spot seems like it would cause more damage rather than less. I would have thought that 2 longer punctures on either side would cause less damage to tissues. The needle is fine and the skin would collapse to cover the track once it is removed. Rotating in one spot is going to cause shearing damage to that area. What's your thoughts on this?

Thank you for a such a nice demonstration

Significant Video, Doc, Hi from Ghana.

Some good points in the video. As for aspirating - it isn't realistically possible to continuously aspirate as you are infiltrating a wound to see see if you are passing through a few mm vessel. If you are going to deposit the anesthetic all in one spot without moving the needle , sure, but if you are moving it it seems unrealistic. Also, if the ACLS dose is 1-1.5mg/kg (say 70mg dose for the average person) and lidocaine is 10mg/ml it wouldn't seem you could get a toxic dose into a vessel as you were passing through it injecting. You might get a few tenths of a ml in it as it passes through? I don't know how much intravascular dose you need to cause a systemic side effect, but I'd think that wouldn't be enough?

Hey there! I've got a question again :D Your argument for injecting when you pull back is so that you know that you're not injecting the lidocaine into a vein. But how do you know that halfway back you're not in a vein, since you only aspirated when you where at the deepest point? The deepest point will not be inside a vein, but if you had passed a vein without noticing, you will pass it again on your way back, injecting lidocaine into it. Or would you have noticed this by causing extravasation when passing through the vein? I have no experience on this matter whatsoever, this just came up to me. Thanks for answering!

@minimedlessons

4 жыл бұрын

Hi again! Another great question! (You sound like a great nursing student). Yes, you're right, there's a chance you could have passed through a vessel and may not notice when aspirating at the deepest point. However, because you're withdrawing as you inject, only a small amount of lidocaine might enter the vessel as the needle backs out of the vessel. It's not overly problematic. The main concern with possibly injecting a small amount of lidocaine into a vessel as you're backing out is a small amount of lidocaine will float off down the vessel rather than staying where you want it to stay. The concern of causing an arrhythmia is not really a big concern. I hope that answers your question.

Not a doctor or educated really what so ever but I always thought that when you turn the needle 90° while in the skin, that it was kind of stretch or rear the tissue. Clearly the more you remove the needle it wouldent bee as bad But I wonder what's going on in the skin when you do that does your skin just stretch around a fabric or are like cutting b The flesh a little

Question: My son had a cut on his head that looked almost exactly what you showed. It was clean but he fell in a place that housed pig feed. The doctor injected so much stuff under scalp and so fast that the whole wound bubbled up like a half sized ping pong ball. What that Lidocaine? Was he trying to clean the wound? He also put tons and tons of hydrogen pyroxide and betadine/iodine soaked gauze in it. Really painful for the little guy.

Yeah, that likely was lidocaine. The wound would definitely be considered dirty because he fell into a place that housed pig feed, so the hydrogen peroxide wash makes sense. It may have been overkill but I don't think anything bad was done.

Great question! Theoretically, that can happen. However, if you’re injecting as you pull back, any vessel the tip of your needle passes through as you withdraw the needle will only receive a very small amount of lidocaine. It with be taken away in the blood flow of the vessel but will be so little in amount that it will not hurt the patient.

Hi, thanks for watching! Of course, cleaning a laceration before closure is extremely important. However, this video is simply about anesthetizing the wound, nothing more. Providing anesthesia prior to thorough irrigation and removal of debris is the humane, ethical way to do it as cleaning a wound properly is incredibly painful without anesthesia first. When closing a laceration, the steps could be summarized simply as 1) Inject lidocaine for anesthesia, 2) thoroughly clean and irrigate the wound, ensuring all visible debris is removed, and 3) close the wound. This video was about that first step, that's all. Thanks.
