Regional anesthetic
|
can be a spinal or a epidural.
- spinal: subarachnoid space L3L4- injected into cerebral spinal fluid, binds to nerve roots. loss of sensation waste down. Atonomic, sensory and motor blockade. fentanyl, Bupivicaine Epidural: doe snto enter the cerebral spinal fluid- binds ot nerve roots entering and exiting the spinal cord.
