Priapism--a rare complication following continuous epidural morphine and bupivacaine infusion.
BACKGROUND Intraspinal drug delivery (IDD) therapy has been increasingly used in patients with intractable, nonmalignant pain who fail to respond to conventional treatment or can not tolerate systemic opioid therapy due to side effects. By infusing a small amount of analgesics directly into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in close proximity to the receptor sites in the spinal cord, one is able to...
متن کاملA comparison of epidural anaesthesia with lignocaine, bupivacaine and a lignocaine-bupivacaine mixture in cats.
A mixture of 2% lignocaine (LIG) and 0.5% bupivacaine (BUP), at respective dose rates of 2 mg/kg and 0.5 mg/kg (LIG-BUP), was compared to LIG (4 mg/kg) and BUP (1 mg/kg) for lumbosacral epidural anaesthesia in 5 sedated cats. Each cat received all 3 treatment regimens at 1-week intervals. The cats were premedicated with an intramuscular injection of atropine sulphate (0.04 mg/kg) and ketamine h...
متن کاملBupivacaine toxicity secondary to continuous cervical epidural infusion. Case report.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES A case is described of bupivacaine toxicity after continuous cervical epidural infusion in a patient with intractable cancer pain. The patient had several periods of generalized tonic clonic seizures. Serial venous blood samples were taken after the first signs of toxicity. The highest total plasma bupivacaine level was 20.3 micrograms/mL. The corresponding free bupiva...
متن کاملComparison between Continuous Epidural Infusion and Intermittent Epidural Bolus of Bupivacaine Fentanyl Combination for Labour Analgesia
Labour analgesia has become almost synonymous with central neuraxial analgesia. Various techniques are in use from single epidural injection, continuous epidural infusion, combined spinal epidural, patient controlled epidural analgesia to programmed intermittent epidural bolus. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages though the purpose remains the same:a painless labour and a healt...
متن کاملComparison of Analgesic Effects of Epidural Infusion of Fentanyl and Fentanyl-bupivacaine in Spine Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial Study
Background & Aim: Although most patients experience severe pain after major spinal fixation surgery, little attention has been paid to control it with a multi-modal approach. The aim of this study is to select appropriate method of pain management after spinal surgery. Methods & Materials/Patients: This study was a randomized clinically controlled trial in candidates of spondylolisthesis and...
