A gas-liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous measurement in serum of bupivacaine, lidocaine, and their main metabolites, 2,6-pipecolylxylidide (PPX) and monoethylglycine xylidide (MEGX), respectively, is described. The procedure involves a one-step extraction and injection of the extract into a gas chromatograph equipped with a capillary column and nitrogen phosphorus detector under constant temperature conditions. Recovery of all components averaged 94%, with the lowest detection limit of 15 ng/ml for the four drugs. The precision within-series coefficients of variation ranged from 7.7% for bupivacaine, 8.6% for lidocaine, 10.2% for MEGX, and 15.8% for PPX. The interday coefficients ranged from 0.7 to 6.5%. Concomitant use of caffeine and carbamazepine may interfere with MEGX and bupivacaine determination, respectively. For this reason, in patients receiving one of these two drugs (or ingesting foods and beverages containing caffeine), the described method is not recommended.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008012 Lidocaine A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.

D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D015203 Reproducibility of Results The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
