Obstetric Anesthesia / distinct side effact of epidural
November 18, 2009, 02:50:49 AM
i have come across two pt who had some differant complain after epidural analgesia for labour.
both the pt where given CSE for labour analgesia, and delivered normally.
Epidural catheter was removed after 12 hr of delivary. on 5 th day pt had complain of back ache which is at the level of epidural insertion site and at the same time sharpe shooting type of pain radiating to lower limb as well as to neck( current like sudden sensation radiating from back to upwards and downwards both.)
this felling is for the moment and it stops by it's own.
it typically happened for once or twice in the day. not related to any posture. and with advice of some extra rest for two day, it dissappear permanently.
any comment????????????????

Hi, sir i regularly use CSE for labour analgesia.
Incidence of PDPH is not realy vary high.
Infact the perineal analgesia largely unsatisfactory in only epidural technique. 
Lots of international publication supports this perticular technique.

Hi, for CSE in major cases, we give spinal anaesthesia with BUPIVACAINE 2.5 ml + clonidine 30 microgram or fentanyl 25 microgram, almost for all cases and starts epidural after 60 min with bupivacaine 0.25% + fentanyl 2 microgram/ ml, at the rate of 8 ml/hr infusion. at the end of the sugery before shiftng infusion is converted to bupivacaion 0.1% + fentanyl 1 microgram/ml at 8 ml/hr for first 3 hrs and then 6 ml/hr for rest of the post op period.
I am presonaly very happy with this protocol.
We reduce the dose of intrathecal bupivacaine if pt's cardiac status is compromised.

regards.

Thanks for your valuable reply.

Hi, in my views our technique of anaesthesia should minimally alter the physiology(maintain the basic physilogy). so, regularly using dopamine infusion for hypotension is really questionable. If atall required should be second line of treatment not the preffered.
