Epidural Analgesia in Acute Pain Management

Carolyn Middleton

Epidural Analgesia in Acute Pain Management

During the past fifteen years epidurals have become increasingly popular and more versatile with applications in adult surgery, trauma, obstetrics and paediatric practice. They are considered to be gold standard of acute pain control.

This book critically appraises the literature through a consensus development conference approach, collating and reviewing epidural analgesia policies, protocols and practices. It aims to help develop and improve patient care, stimulate learning and highlight ideas and priorities for nursing research. The book can be used as a quick reference guide for clinical practice or as a framework for developing individual local epidural services and practice guidelines.
