Name Time Method Plasma Lignocaine Levels[No specific primary timepoint - aim is to measure levels over 4 hours and model continuously over this time period. The protocol outlines that the following anticipated measurement timepoints - T5minutes post lignocaine bolus completion and then T30minutes, T6o minutes, T120minutes, T180minutes and T240minutes]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Plasma levels of the primary lignocaine active metabolite - monoethylglycinexylididem (MEGX)[The protocol outlines that the following anticipated measurement timepoints - T5minutes post lignocaine bolus completion and then T30minutes, T6o minutes, T120minutes, T180minutes and T240minutes];Plasma levels of the secondary lignocaine active metabolite - glycylxylidide (GX[The protocol outlines that the following anticipated measurement timepoints - T5minutes post lignocaine bolus completion and then T30minutes, T6o minutes, T120minutes, T180minutes and T240minutes];Plasma levels of alpha-1-glycoprotein[The protocol outlines that the following anticipated measurement timepoints - T5minutes post lignocaine bolus completion and then T30minutes, T6o minutes, T120minutes, T180minutes and T240minutes]
