  • Title: Large dose epidural sufentanil. Management of postoperative pain with few side effects.
    Author: Madej TH, Watson NC, Martin BC.
    Journal: Anaesthesia; 1987 Nov; 42(11):1204-6. PubMed ID: 2963562.
    Abstract:
    The postoperative analgesic management of a patient who was intolerant of morphine and pethidine is described. An epidural infusion of fentanyl up to 1 microgram/kg/hour was ineffective for analgesia in the first 18 hours. Subsequently, 50-micrograms boluses and an infusion of 0.5 microgram/kg/hour sufentanil provided satisfactory analgesia with minimal side effects for 28 hours.
