    Author: Geodakian OS, Tsypin LE.
    Journal: Anesteziol Reanimatol; 2006; (1):20-3. PubMed ID: 16613038.
    Abstract:
    The paper deals with the efficiency of postoperative analgesia after thoracoplasty in 43 adolescents with the funnel chest. Within the first 64-72 postoperative hours, the patients received a continuous epidural infusion of 0.2% ropivacaine solution at a rate of 0.3 ml/kg/hr. Analyses of hemodynamic parameters and the pain scale demonstrated the efficiency of this postoperative analgesia in 74.4% of the adolescents.
