A comparison of the efficacy and safety of different doses of fentanyl as an adjuvant to bupivacaine for caudal analgesia in children undergoing lower abdominal surgery
نویسنده
چکیده
Single dose caudal epidural anesthesia is a commonly performed regional technique in paediatric anesthesia. It supplements general anesthesia during surgery and provides analgesia in the post operative period for lower abdominal surgeries not exceeding 45 minutes. Aims and Objectives: A comparative prospective interventional study was conducted to assess the duration, efficacy and safety of two different doses of fentanyl with bupivacaine administered via caudal route for postoperative analgesia in children.
