Abstract
Two hundred children underwent day-care surgery using peripheral nerve
blockade as an adjunct to general anaesthesia during a twelve month p
eriod. Total post-operative analgesia was achieved in 86%, simple oral
analgesia was needed in 9% and the remaining 5% of patients required
systemic opiate administration for pain.
