Lipid rescueLipid rescue is a term that has been coined to describe the use of intravenous lipid emulsion to treat severe local anaesthetic toxicity. Additional recommended knowledgeTo date, Intralipid, a commonly available intravenous lipid emulsion is the only such emulsion to be shown to be effective in this way. This is supported by animal evidence[1][2] and human case reports of successful use in this way.[3][4] In the UK, efforts have been made to publicise this use more widely[5] and lipid rescue has now been officially promoted as a treatment by the Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland.[6] There is now one published case report of successful treatment of refractory cardiac arrest in bupropion and lamotrigine overdose using lipid emulsion.[7] References
