Pharmacokinetics of 0.2% ropivacaine and 0.2% bupivacaine following caudal blocks in children.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Induction of mild hypothermia (MH) in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest improves their outcome. However, benefits and risks of MH in patients who remain in cardiogenic shock after the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) are unclear. We analysed all cardiac arrest survivors who were treated with ...

Therefore, the current study was desi...
