Did a CSE recently in a multip who came in fast progressing. Easy epidural, good LOR, then good CSF flow, used 2 ml of bag mix (0.125 bupi and 2 mcg/ml fentanyl). Meanwhile threaded epidural, taped, set up pump, and patient still having significant pain. No relief at all she said. Bolused the epidural, came back 20 mins later and completely comfortable.
Should I use something else for the spinal dose? I do think the spinal worked well because she had a good equal level and excellent pain relief initially, that later was more one sided a few hours later presumably from the epidural. Anyway to make this spinal set in faster?
