Minimising bruising in the antecubital fossa after venepuncture.
Open accessAbstract
This plus the immediacy of the reaction suggest that his death was unlikely to have been due to toxicity.Nebulised lignocaine may cause narrowing of the airways in patients with asthma,2 but this is rarely of clinical importance especially as nebulised bronchodilators are given before fibreoptic bronchoscopy.Hypersensitivity to lignocaine is uncommon.Urticarial reactions may occur,3 and deaths due to anaphylaxis after small doses of injected local anaesthetic have been reported.45 We believe that this is the first reported death due to topical lignocaine during fibreoptic bronchoscopy.This procedure, however, remains safe with few complications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
