Patient-controlled epidural analgesia with sufentanil following caesarean section: the effect of adrenaline and clonidine admixture.

abstract：:We assessed the effectiveness of early patient-controlled oral analgesia compared with parenteral analgesia in a randomised controlled non-inferiority trial of women undergoing elective caesarean section under regional anaesthesia. Seventy-seven women received multimodal paracetamol, ketoprofen and morphine analgesia....
