What
techniques can be used for post-cesarean pain relief?
Intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and
neuraxial opioids can be administered for post-cesarean pain relief. Women who
receive epidural morphine sulfate complain of less pain than women who receive
IV or IM morphine sulfate. Morphine sulfate in either the subarachnoid or
epidural space provides analgesia for up to 24 hours. The dose of epidural
morphine is 3–4 mg and of subarachnoid morphine is 0.1–0.25 mg.
