Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A recombinant ApoA-I Milano/phospholipid complex administered intravenously for 5 doses at weekly intervals produced significant regression of coronary atherosclerosis as measured by IVUS, and results require confirmation in larger clinical trials with morbidity and mortality end points.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postdural puncture headache and spinal needle design. Metaanalyses.
Stephen H. Halpern,R. Preston +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that a noncutting needle should be used for patients at high risk for PDPH, and the smallest gauge needle available should been used for all patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Epidural vs Parenteral Opioid Analgesia on the Progress of Labor: A Meta-analysis
TL;DR: Epidural labor analgesia is not associated with increased rates of instrumented vaginal delivery for dystocia or cesarean delivery, and patient satisfaction and neonatal outcome are better after epidural than parenteral opioid analgesia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patient-controlled epidural analgesia versus continuous infusion for labour analgesia: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: Patients who receive PCEA are less likely to require anaesthetic interventions, require lower doses of local anaesthetic and have less motor block than those who receive CEI.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of epidural analgesia on labor, maternal, and neonatal outcomes: A systematic review
TL;DR: For example, this article found that mothers who received parenteral opioids require naloxone and have low 1-minute Apgar scores more frequently than do neonates who received epidural analgesia.
