A method to quickly calculate mixtures for epidural infusions.
Epidural solutions of local anesthetics and opioids, such as bupivaCaine and fentanyl, are commonly employed for intraoperative use, labor and delivery, and postoperative analgesia. Clinicians frequently need to assemble mixtures of different concentrations from individual components. Knowing the initial and final concentrations of local anesthetic and opioid, this method allows one to quickly ...
متن کاملIntermittent epidural bolus compared with continuous epidural infusions for labor analgesia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND The current standard labor epidural analgesic regimens consist of a local anesthetic in combination with an opioid delivered via continuous epidural infusion (CEI). With CEI local anesthetic, doses may be large with resulting profound motor blockade potentially affecting the incidence of instrumental deliveries. In this systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), we com...
متن کاملProlonged epidural infusions of ropivacaine (2 mg/mL) after colonic surgery: the impact of adding fentanyl.
UNLABELLED We evaluated the safety and efficacy of a 72-h epidural infusion of ropivacaine and measured the impact of adding fentanyl 2 microg/mL to the required infusion rate, on the quality of postoperative pain relief and the incidence of side effects, after colonic surgery. One hundred fifty-five patients scheduled for elective colonic surgery were randomized in this trial. Epidural infusio...
متن کاملMassive Intravenous Infusions *
Some of the factors governing the development of edema in the lungs are understood in broad terms. These factors are considered to be no different from those operative in the systemic vessels-increased hydrostatic pressure, decreased oncotic pressure, excessive permeability of the vessels, and decreased lymphatic drainage. Little specific quantitative information is available relative to the pu...
متن کاملThoracic epidural anesthesia and epidural hematoma.
This report involves a 74-year-old-male who developed a thoracic epidural hematoma with paraparesis on the second postoperative day in conjunction with thoracic epidural anesthesia established before surgery for acute abdominal aortic dissection. The finding indicates that laminectomy can be performed successfully as late as three days after diagnosis of the hematoma, with a complete restitutio...
