Comparison of hyperbaric ropivacaine with hyperbaric bupivacaine in subarachnoid block. [PDF]
The efficacy and safety of hyperbaric ropivacaine with hyperbaric bupivacaine in spinal anesthesia for lower abdominal surgeries is of interest. Both agents produced reliable sensory and motor blocks; however, ropivacaine exhibited a slower onset, a less extensive sensory block and a faster regression compared to bupivacaine.

Transient neurologic symptoms following spinal anesthesia with isobaric mepivacaine: A decade of experience at Toronto Western Hospital [PDF]
Background: Transient neurologic symptoms (TNSs) can be distressing for patients and providers following uneventful spinal anesthesia. Spinal mepivacaine may be less commonly associated with TNS than lidocaine; however, reported rates of TNS with ...

The effects of spinal anaesthesia for elective caesarean section on uterine and umbilical arterial pulsatility indexes in normotensive and chronic hypertensive pregnant women: a prospective, longitudinal study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Despite the known effects of neuraxial blockade on major vessel function and the rapid decrease in uterine vascular impedance, it is unclear how the blockade affects the utero-placental circulation in the near-term.

Comparison of Equivalent Doses of Intrathecal Hyperbaric Levo-bupivacaine and Hyperbaric Bupivacaine for Caesarean Section: A Prospective Randomised Double-Blind Study [PDF]
Introduction: Subarachnoid Block (SAB) with Hyperbaric Bupivacaine (HB) is the most common anaesthetic technique for Lower Segment Caesarean Section (LSCS). Levo-bupivacaine, an enantiomer of racemic bupivacaine, has been developed to provide anaesthesia

Background: Sufentanil added to intrathecal bupivacaine for cesarean section has shown to improve intraoperative and postoperative analgesia without any adverse effects to the mother and neonate. In the present study we compare the effects of intrathecal sufentanil 5 µg and 8 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with intrathecal 10 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric

Spinal Anesthesia with Hyperbaric Bupivacaine
The effect of adding 0.2 ml of 1:1000 epinephrine or 0.5 ml of 1% phenylephrine to 3 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine in 8% dextrose for spinal anesthesia was assessed in 30 patients in a double-blind study. The addition of phenylephrine gave a small prolongation of the block which was not statistically significant.
