Abstract
The recognition of tachyphylaxis or acute tolerance to local anesthetics is not universal and depends on a number of factors: the perspective of the observer, the nature of the regional anesthetic, whether the observations are made on the basis of an in vitro or in vivo animal model, and not least, how it is defined.
