Continuous intercostal nerve blockade for pain relief following cholecystectomy.
Continuous intercostal nerve blockade was used to provide analgesia after cholecystectomy. The blockade was maintained by the insertion of a single extradural catheter into an appropriate intercostal space and by "topping-up" with local anaesthetic on demand. Of the patients studied, 92%, and 76%, required no additional analgesia in the first 24 h and first 48 h following operation, respectivel...
متن کاملIntercostal catheter analgesia is more efficient vs. intercostal nerve blockade for post-thoracotomy pain relief.
A pain after thoracotomy may result in a postoperative hypoventilation and lead to atelectases and pneumonia.

Patients in group A were given 20 ...
