Abstract
Thirty patients scheduled for postpartum tubal ligation under epidural anesthesia received either a commercial preparation of 3% 2-chloroprocaine or one with pH adjusted by the addition of NaHCO3 shortly before block placement. The administrators of the epidural were blinded as to the solution employed and were scheduled to administer up to 23 ml of anesthetic solution via an epidural catheter in divided doses. Data collected included time to onset of blockade, time to attainment of T4 level, maximal dermatomal spread, and time to 2-segment regression. The need for intravenous sedatives and analgesics was recorded.
