Postoperative extradural analgesia in children: comparison of morphine with fentanyl.

We have studied the ability of clonidine to potentiate morphine analgesia in 28 patients (ASA I) after meniscectomy under general anaesthesia. One hour after surgery, morphine 3 mg (n = 10), clonidine 75 micrograms (n = 8) or morphine 3 mg plus clonidine 75 micrograms (n = 10) was injected extradurally. Morphine alone and in combination with clonidine produced similar and significant analgesia ...

We have studied the effect of continuous extradural analgesia with bupivacaine and morphine, initiated before or after colonic surgery, in a double-blind, randomized study. Thirty-two patients were allocated randomly to receive an identical extradural block initiated 40 min before surgical incision (n = 16) or at closure of the surgical wound (n = 16). The extradural regimen consisted of a bolu...

Two groups of patients were allowed to self-administer morphine (n = 17) or pethidine (n = 15) extradurally after abdominal surgery, for a mean period of 16 h. Bolus increments of morphine 1 mg or pethidine 20 mg were administered by programmable pump. Pain relief from extradural patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) was excellent in all but two patients in the morphine group. Pain relief was not ...
