Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialSpinal anesthesia with two different dosages of 0.75% glucose-free ropivacaine: a comparison of efficacy and safety in Chinese parturients undergoing cesarean section.
We compared the clinical efficacy and safety between 2 doses of 2.5 ml (18.75 mg) and 3 ml (22.5 mg) of 0.75% glucose free spinal ropivacaine in Chinese parturients undergoing Cesarean section. ⋯ We conclude that for Cesarean section in Chinese parturients either 18.75 mg (2.5 ml) or 22.5 mg (3 ml) 0.75% glucose-free ropivacaine can provide a spinal anesthesia of the same efficacy and safety.
