Prophylactic Use of Lipid Emulsion Therapy After Inadvertent Administration of 0.5% Ropivacaine for a Bier Block: A Case Report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The Bier block for intravenous regional anesthesia is generally well tolerated, and few complications have been reported. It provides a bloodless surgical field and adequate analgesia when performed correctly. A diluted short-acting local anesthetic such as 0.5% lidocaine is typically used. Our case is a 41-year-old female who presented for endoscopic carpal tunnel release of her right wrist. An accidental injection of 30 mL of 0.5% ropivacaine was given instead of the normal 30 mL of 0.5% lidocaine, with a total tourniquet time of 46 min. Although the maximum safe dose of local anesthetic was not exceeded, lipid emulsion was administered out of an abundance of caution. No neurological or cardiovascular symptoms were reported, and the patient was discharged later that day.
