Routine private practice laminectomy

[dhb]

25 mcg over 1 hour.
This patient was not your usual back pain patient, he actually did not take any narcotics at home.

Well that explains it (although it depends on how it was given). Were the 5L of fluids also given in the same hour?

The CRNA gave 5 liters over 2 hours but surprisingly this patient did not go into CHF!
She watched the BP drift down and kept giving fluids hoping that could fix the problem.
