Abstract:

Objective: To observe the effects and complications of Sufentanil and Bupivacaine for patient -controlled epidural
analgesia(PCEF)after caesarean section with combined spinal epidural anesthesia. Methods: Two epidural anesthesia methods were randomly conducted in sixty patients undergoing caesarean section, the effects were evaluated. Results: The times of effective compression in effective control group S(Sufentanil)were lower than that of group F(Fentanyl). VAS scores in group S were lower than that of group F at 12 hour and 24 hour(P<0.05). BCS scores and Ram scores in group S were higher than that of group F(P<0.05). Complication rate in group S was lower compared to that of group F. SPO2 was above 95% in both groups, and there was no statistic significance of HR. Conclusions: The effects of Sufentanil and Bupivacaine combined with Dexamethasone were better compared to the application of Fentanyl, and complications hardly occurred. This method is safe and feasible in PCEF.
