Reversing Effect of Insulin on Local Anesthetics-Induced Sciatic Nerve Block in Rats

Figure 1

Evaluation of motor nerve conduction in the sciatic nerve in the rat. (a) The sciatic nerve is stimulated with a bipolar intraoperative stimulation device. Recording needles are placed in the cranial tibial muscle belly. (b) Serial recordings of motor nerve conduction in prelocal anesthetic application (red line), after sciatic nerve block by local anesthetic application (yellow line), and after recovery of local anesthetic nerve block (blue line).
