  • Title: [Peridural use of buprenorphine. Case report].
    Author: Dahl HD.
    Journal: Reg Anaesth; 1984 Apr; 7(2):56-8. PubMed ID: 6729155.
    Abstract:
    This case-report of a 78-year old patient, suffering from extreme pain caused by metastatic formation and pathological bone fractures, shows, that the epidural injection of buprenorphine is a good alternative compared to other means of pain-treatment. During almost four days heart rate, blood pressure and breathing frequency, as well as the general reactions of the patient, were observed. Few side effects and little discomfort make the method advisable for patients in poor general condition.
