abstract：BACKGROUND:Intrathecal sufentanil (ITS) is frequently used to provide analgesia during labor. Decreases in blood pressure and sensory changes in this circumstance suggest that ITS may have a local anesthetic effect and thus cause a sympathectomy. To determine whether ITS given to laboring women causes a sympathectomy, ...
