Author(s): Jashma Chandveettil*, Gnanam Sathyamurthy and Rajani Sundar
Introduction: Pain free recuperation is the basic right of every surgical patient. Postoperative pain has a deleterious effect on the short-term and long-term outcome of patients.

One group received CEA (Group-CEA) with ropivacaine and fentanyl at 6-10 ml/hour titrated for pain and the other group received CEA at a basal dose of 6ml/hour and bolus PCEA (Group-PCEA) for residual pain. The patients were studied for 36 hours after extubation. Primary .. Read More»
