EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES ON EPIDURAL ANESTHESIA : II. ACTIVITY OF SINGLE NMU IN EPIDURAL ANESTHESIA

Thoracic 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...

INTRODUCTION Social media as YouTube have become a part of daily life and many studies evaluated health-related YouTube videos. Our aim was to evaluate videos available on YouTube for the conformity to textbook information and their sufficiency as a source for patient information. MATERIAL AND METHOD A search of the YouTube website was performed using the keywords "spinal anesthesia, epidural...

Epidural analgesia and anesthesia.

This review describes the beneficial effects of the use of epidural drugs for pre-emptive analgesia, intraoperative analgesia with an inhalant-sparing effect, and prolonged postoperative analgesia. Epidural morphine oxymorphone, or hydromorphone is recommended for use in small animals in combination with a local anesthetic of appropriate duration for procedures involving the hind end, although ...

Sacral Epidural Anesthesia

Combined Spinal Epidural Anesthesia

Regional anesthetic techniques are rapidly evolving to meet the needs of an ever increasing day surgery patient population. Rapidity and control of onset and offset of anesthesia with minimal side effects are now required of regional anesthetic techniques if these are to compete with general anesthesia. Spinal and combined spinal epidural (CSE) anesthesia for the day surgery patient are discuss...
