چکیده

We describe a 25 mg intrathecal morphine overdose during a combined spinal-epidural block for a Caesarean delivery. Naloxone infusion (5.24 mg over 24 h) was started prior to the patient becoming symptomatic and almost immediately after the overdose. Invasive therapeutics such as mechanical ventilation were avoided.

A comparison of a Neuropen monofilament and ethyl chloride for assessing loss of touch sensation during combined spinal-epidural anaesthesia for caesarean section.

BACKGROUND Before caesarean section is performed under regional anaesthesia the block should be assessed, preferably using a touch stimulus. What constitutes a touch stimulus remains unclear. The aim of this study was to compare a Neuropen monofilament with ethyl chloride in the assessment of touch. METHODS Forty women undergoing elective caesarean section received combined spinal-epidural an...

Evaluation of S1 motor block to determine a safe, reliable test dose for epidural analgesia.

BACKGROUND Accidental intrathecal injection of bupivacaine during epidural analgesia in labour remains a hazard, with the potential to cause total spinal anaesthesia and maternal collapse. Sacral block appears early after intrathecal injections compared with epidural ones, and we therefore used SI motor block to determine a safe and reliable test dose for epidural catheter misplacement. METHO...

Epidural versus intrathecal morphine for postoperative analgesia after Caesarean section.

BACKGROUND Perispinal anaesthesia for Caesarean section allows injection of epidural (ED) or intrathecal (i.t.) morphine to provide long-lasting postoperative analgesia. To compare these two routes, a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study of 53 patients undergoing elective Caesarean section was performed. METHODS Combined spinal-epidural anaesthesia with 6 mg of i.t. hyperbaric bupiva...
