Continuous subarachnoid infusion of 0.125% bupivacaine for analgesia during labour.
We have studied 20 primiparous women requesting pain relief for labour, to determine the feasibility of subarachnoid infusions of bupivacaine for analgesia. A 28-gauge catheter was inserted into the subarachnoid space through a modified 22-gauge Sprotte needle. After a bolus dose of up to 1.5 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine, a continuous infusion of 0.125% bupivacaine was commenced. If analgesia became...
متن کامل[Postoperative analgesia: comparing continuous epidural catheter infusion of local anesthetic and opioid and continuous wound catheter infusion of local anesthetic].
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Continuous wound infusion has been investigated as a method of postoperative pain control and its efficacy has been demonstrated when compared to saline infusion. The objective of this study was to compare the quality of postoperative analgesia, the use of opioids as rescue analgesia, patient satisfaction, and the incidence of complications between epidural catheter in...
متن کاملStudy protocol for a double blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial of continuous subpectoral local anaesthetic infusion for pain and shoulder function following mastectomy: SUB-pectoral Local anaesthetic Infusion following MastEctomy (SUBLIME) study
INTRODUCTION Over 16 000 mastectomies are performed in England and Wales annually. Acute postoperative pain and nausea are common. The most frequently occurring long-term complications are chronic pain (up to 50%) and reduced shoulder function (reported at 35%).

متن کاملDevelopments in local anaesthetic drugs.
Most of the recent developments in local anaesthetics have been a direct consequence of the recognition, 20 yr ago, of the acute, life-threatening cardiotoxicity of bupivacaine. All local anaesthetics produce a dose dependent delay in the transmission of impulses through the cardiac conduction system by their action on the cardiac sodium and potassium channels. However, overt cardiotoxicity usu...
