Summary

This study is to determine the minimum effective dose for intrathecal chloroprocaine in inguinal herniorrhaphy in outpatients using a Combined Spinal Epidural (CSE) anesthesia.

Conditions

  • Spinal Anesthesia

Interventions

DRUG

Chloroprocaine 1% Injectable Solution

standard CSE procedure in outpatients for inguinal hernia. The first spinal dose of chloroprocaine 1% to start with is 50mg. This dose has been successfully used for spinal anesthesia in hernia repair outpatients to reach an adequate analgesia. 2,5 microgram of sufentanil will be added for prolongation of the analgesia. The testing interval is 2 mg. Efficacy of the analgesia will be evaluated: Successful : sensory block at or above T6 dermatome bilateral at the beginning of surgery without additional analgesia during surgery. Unsuccessful: sensory block under T6 dermatome bilateral and/or VAPS is more than 10 mm at the beginning of surgery what necessitates additional epidurals analgesia. Patients who indicate an ineffective result will receive a rescue treatment by the administration of 5 ml chloroprocaine 3% epidural every 5 minutes with maximum of 30ml. When CSE fails, general anesthesia will be performed.
