Development of a reliable mouse model for caudal epidural anesthesia [PDF]
Epidural anesthesia is frequently used for pain management during surgery and childbirth. However, a persistent issue is fever induced by epidural anesthesia, a common complication in clinical settings, for which effective countermeasures are lacking ...

A multicenter survey of pediatric caudal epidural anesthesia practices in resource-limited settings [PDF]
Caudal epidural blocks are commonly used anesthesia techniques in children. This multicenter study used an interviewer-administered questionnaire in 28 hospitals to describe pediatric caudal epidural anesthesia practice in the Palestinian healthcare ...

Combination of clonidine–bupivacaine in caudal epidural anesthesia for hypospadias surgery in children: prospective, randomized, blind study [PDF]
Background and objectives: The combination of clonidine with local anesthetic administered for epidural anesthesia via caudal route seems to improve the quality of postoperative analgesia, but with conflicting results.

Caudal epidural anesthesia in awake premature neonates for inguinalherniorrhaphy [PDF]
Postoperative apnea (PA) occurs between 12 and 40% in premature infants, varying inversely in postconceptual age (risk is greater if age is less than 44 weeks). It can appear as late as 12 hours after the end of the surgical anesthesia (7).

Caudal epidural anesthesia during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer. [PDF]
It has been suggested that pain control during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer is insufficient in most hospitals in Japan. Our hospital began using caudal epidural anesthesia during high-dose-rate (HDR) intracavitary brachytherapy in 2011. The purpose of the present study was to retrospectively investigate the effects of caudal epidural

COMBINED CAUDAL EPIDURAL WITH GENERAL ANESTHESIA FOR LUMBAR DISCECTOMY [PDF]
Background: Lumbar Discectomy can be effectively performed using various anesthetic techniques. General anesthesia is more frequently used for these surgeries, though regional anesthesia when combined with general anesthesia is proven to be safe in few ...

Ultrasound-Guided Caudal Epidural Anesthesia in Adults for Anorectal Procedures.
Caudal epidural is a commonly performed regional anesthetic technique in children. In adults, the high-failure rates associated with landmark-based techniques deter its widespread use. Fluoroscopy-guided caudal epidural steroid injections are widely used as a treatment modality in chronic back pain. Ultrasound (US) guidance has been shown to be equally

Refining caudal catheterization for anorectal surgery: a comparative study of a technique to optimize sensory block and minimize motor impairment. [PDF]
Background The application of caudal epidural catheterization for anorectal surgery has not been systematically investigated. Methods We performed a retrospective chart review of adult patients undergoing elective anorectal surgery under caudal epidural ...

Ultrasound versus anatomical landmarks for caudal epidural anesthesia in pediatric patients. [PDF]
Caudal block is easily performed because the landmarks are superficial. However, the sacral hiatus is small and shallow in pediatric patients. In the present study, we evaluated under general anesthesia whether the distance between the bilateral superolateral sacral crests increased with growth, whether an equilateral triangle was formed between the ...
