[Improving venous tolerance of methohexital].
As there are still contradictions in the literature on the efficacy of different solvents to reduce venous pain after the injection of methohexital we restudied this problem. In an earlier investigation normal saline proved superior to distilled water. We now found that injection of an opioid prior to methohexital and addition of lidocaine to the methohexital solution leads to a strong reduction in the incidence of pain.
