Abstract

The clinical evaluation of continuous administration of epidural morphine was undertaken using an infusion pump (Act-A-Pump 1000). Eleven patients who had undergone abdominal surgical procedures were treated with this therapeutic modality for postoperative pain control, and two cancer patients for chronic pain relief. The results were satisfactory and the advantages over repeated epidural injections are discussed.
