Ultrasound-guided brachial plexus block in a patient with multiple glomangiomatosis.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:0.1% bupivacaine for obstetric epidural analgesia is given by infusion, using a loading dose of a higher concentration alone or in combination with opioid analgesics. A single dose of 0.1% without any additive for relief of first-stage labor pain has not yet been documented. METHODS:Fifty-eig...
