Differential epidural block.

Regional anesthesia, 1992
Loss of sensation to pinprick and cold are commonly used to test the extent of epidural anesthesia. To see what difference exists between the level of epidural block determined by various sensory modalities, we performed this study in ten volunteers using epidural anesthesia with plain 3% chloroprocaine hydrochloride.Four injections of chloroprocaine ...

Abstract Epidural blocks can be performed at any level from the high cervical spine down to the sacral hiatus. A lumbar epidural can provide surgical anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia for sub-umbilical surgery, whereas a thoracic epidural will provide effective analgesia but not anaesthesia for thoracic and upper abdominal surgery.

Caudothoracic epidural block

Techniques in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management, 1999
Epidural catheters can be introduced via the sacral hiatus in neonates, infants, and children and accurately sited at the desired level in the lumbar or thoracic region. Greatest success is achieved in neonates and infants; the age group in which direct lumbar and thoracic epidural placement is both technically difficult and carries the greatest risk ...

Spinal, epidural and caudal blockade are the three components of central neuraxial blockade and provide surgical anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia for sub-umbilical surgery (thoracic epidurals provide effective analgesia but not anaesthesia for thoracic and upper abdominal surgery).

Cervical Interlaminar Epidural Block

2015
This technique was first described by Dogliotti in 1933 [1] and may be used for both surgical anesthesia and analgesia as well as for persistent pain states. The possible surgical indications include upper limb surgery [2], neck surgery [3], and breast surgery [4].
