Left ventricular dysfunction after non-cardiac surgical procedures in patients with ischemic heart disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND:A recent investigation demonstrated a high incidence of epidural abscess secondary to epidural catheterization and a 50% frequency of neurologic deficits. We studied short- and long-term neurologic outcome in patients operated for spinal epidural abscess after epidural analgesia. METHODS:Nineteen patients w...
