Application of continuous brachial plexus block in prolonged upper limb operation on children
Objective:To explore the methods and feasibility of continuous brachial plexus block in pediatric upper limb operation.Methods:After undergoning basal anesthesia with sodium pentothal and gamma hydroxy sodium butylate
42 children scheduled for upper limb operation were punctured and inserted with catheter from brachial plexus.Lidocaine was injected in different doses according to the age.Invasive blood pressure of radial artery
pulse
respiration rate and SPO 2 were observed at different time points.Results:There was no obvious difference in respiration and circulation at different time points( P >0.05).42 children were anesthetized perfectly except 3 cases with Horner syndrome and 2 failure cases.The complication such as hematoma and infection did not happen.Conclusion:Continuous brachial plexus block is a simple
feasible and safe method in complex and prolonged operation of upper limb.
