Combined spinal epidural anesthesia using an original Portex kit was carried out in 62 patients operated on for orthopaedic, urological, and gynecological disorders. Hemodynamics was examined by tetrapolar chest rheography, hemostasis by electrocoagulography. Satisfactory blocking was attained in 98% cases, in 1 patient an accidental puncture of the subarachnoidal space with Tuohy needle occurred. Development of spinal block was associated with a reduction of heart productivity and hypocoagulation changes in the hemostasis. The parameters examined remained within the normal range of values.

Labor analgesia is increasingly widespread throughout the world with a rate ranging from 10 to 60%. The benefits regarding clinical and non-clinical maternal-fetal outcomes are currently discussed in international scientific literature. Even stage of labor needs a different and appropriate approach to control the pain; however, different techniques are reported in literature.

Background: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious concern with multifactorial etiology. Association between prenatal anxiety, pain, and depression has been theorized.
Aim: In this randomized controlled trial, we studied the effect of pain relief by combined spinal epidural (CSE) and other factors influencing PPD.

Introduction: There are multiple variables known to be associated with pain during cesarean delivery (PDCD), including patient-related factors, obstetrical and surgical factors, and anesthetic technique. The primary aim of this prospective patient-reported outcome study was to evaluate patient-related factors, including expectations and anxiety, and clinical variables associated with PDCD.
Methods: Patients undergoing cesarean delivery from December 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024 were enrolled 24 to 72 hours postoperatively.
Background: The primary objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of lignocaine-dexamethasone and lignocaine-triamcinolone infiltration, along the spinal-epidural needle insertion pathway, to prevent backache after lower abdominal surgeries.
Methods: This prospective, double-blind randomized controlled study included a total of 150 patients, scheduled for elective lower abdominal surgery under combined spinal-epidural (CSE) anaesthesia. The patients were randomised into three groups Group L (Lignocaine, n=50), Group DL (Dexamethasone, Lignocaine, n=50), and Group TL (Triamcinolone, Lignocaine, n=50).
