Low-dose combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for cesarean delivery: a comparison of three plain local anesthetics.
The new local anesthetics have been poorly studied for intrathecal use during Cesarean section surely in low doses and in combination with an opioid substance. The purpose of the present study was to compare bupivacaine and the newer local anesthetics in equipotent doses. During the induction of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, 91 elective Cesarean section patients were randomly assigned to...
متن کاملDetermination of the full dose-response relation of intrathecal bupivacaine, levobupivacaine, and ropivacaine, combined with sufentanil, for labor analgesia.
BACKGROUND Ropivacaine and levobupivacaine are local anesthetics that produce less motor block and greater sensory-motor separation when compared with equal milligram doses of bupivacaine. Although minimum local analgesic concentration studies suggested that they are less potent than bupivacaine, full dose-response studies have not been performed. The current trial describes the dose-response r...
متن کاملFailed epidural: causes and management.
Failed epidural anaesthesia or analgesia is more frequent than generally recognized. We review the factors known to influence the success rate of epidural anaesthesia. Reasons for an inadequate epidural block include incorrect primary placement, secondary migration of a catheter after correct placement, and suboptimal dosing of local anaesthetic drugs. For catheter placement, the loss of resist...
متن کاملPost-Operative Continous Epidural Infusion in Geriatric Patients with Cardiopulmonary Co-Morbidities: Comparison between Ropivacaine and Levobupivacaine
With increasing life expectancy, improved healthcare and increasing prosperity, the proportion of elderly population is increasing throughout the world [1]. Altered redistribution kinetics as well as compromised drug clearance capacity render geriatric patients particularly vulnerable to drug-induced complications [2]. Regional anesthesia is preferred for the older patients because this form of...
متن کاملWhich Local Anesthetic at what Dose is Recommended for Parturients Undergoing Cesarean Delivery Under Spinal Anesthesia?
Spinal anesthesia is the most popular regional anesthesia technique for cesarean delivery as it is easily performed and provides rapid onset of block followed by dense surgical anesthesia. Although bupivacaine seems to be widely and routinely used long acting amide type local anesthetic drug for spinal anesthesia, ropivacaine and levobupivacaine may occasionally be chosen. However, it is diffic...
