| Description: |
( Anesth Analg . 2021;133:151–159. doi: 10.1213/ANE.0000000000005526) Flexible epidural catheters have a lower incidence of both paresthesias and intravascular catheter placement. This study aimed to compare and analyze the efficacy of 2 commercially available epidural kits: kit “A” (single-end hole wire-reinforced polyurethane epidural catheter; n=135) and kit “B” (multi-orifice wire-reinforced polyamide nylon blend epidural catheter; n=122). |
