Yes or no? How much?

I'm not adding epi but wonder what other people do.

No why?

 

[urge]

Why?- Same rationale we use for adding epi to epidurals.

We do at my institution, but I'm not sure if it's 1:100K vs 1:200K. We have a bottle of 0.25% Bupivacaine that has Epi premixed in it. I think it's 1:200K.

I use it.

Always.

Single shots? Yes. Catheters? No.
