Effect of Fentanyl in Spinal Anesthesia With Bupivacaine in Opium Abusers

Abstract: Background: Spinal anesthesia is a common procedure in the anesthesia. In some studies it has been shown that chronic use of opioids is associated with shorter duration of spinal anesthesia when local anesthetics are applied. Objectives: This trial was conducted in order to determine effect of fentanyl on the duration of spinal block by bupivacaine in chronic opium abusers who undergo spinal anesthesia and have lower thresholds for pain. Patients and Methods:This study was a randomized clinical trial in which … Show more

“…The onset of sensory block and regression of motor block to zero was faster in group BF (p <0.05).. TAR was also prolonged in BF group (233.41±46.46 min) than in group B (213.19±51.46 min), and it is statistically signi cant (p<0.05).This result is in accordant with prospective comparative study done in India [14], showed earlier onset of sensory analgesia, time to achieve peak sensory level, and recovery from motor blockade in group BF than in group B. This is also in line with another study conducted in Iran [17][22], showed the mean duration of sensory block was much longer in group BF than in group B but time to achieve maximum level of block and Mean time of two-segment regression was much shorter in group BF than in group B.…”

“…In another study conducted by the same team, the effect of intrathecally administration of lidocaine in spinal anesthesia was studied in chronic opioid users with similar outcomes, including shorter sensory and motor blockade during spinal anesthesia in chronic opium abusers ( 8 ). To lengthen this shortened duration in chronic opium abusers, fentanyl, midazolam and ketamine have been proposed as an adjuvant ( 9 - 12 ).…”
