  • Title: [0.75% and 0.5% bupivacaine in peridural lumbar block for surgery on the lower abdomen; a double-blind comparison and myographic study].
    Author: Pietrobono P, Venchi GA.
    Journal: Minerva Anestesiol; 1980 Apr; 46(4):485-92. PubMed ID: 7005718.
    Abstract:
    A double blind study has been carried out on 40 patients subjected to peridural block with 0.50% and 0.75% bupivacaine for operations on the low abdomen. While no significant differences were observed with regard to the latency and duration of anaesthetic action, 0.75% marcaine was more effective as regards the duration and degree of motor block. This result was also confirmed by an electromyographic study of the muscles of the hypothenar eminence.
