A patient received lidocaine as an axillary block for a surgical procedure. The nurse checks the pulse rate 5 minutes after administration and determines that the pulse is slightly irregular and slow. Select the correct analysis of this finding.
 
  1. The patient has absorbed lidocaine and may have cardiac toxicity.
  2. There may have been excessive epinephrine in the anesthetic.
  3. The patient is now pain free, so the pulse rate is slower.
  4. This is a normal response when lidocaine is used for axillary blocks.
