Abstract :

PCEA is an excellent method for postoperative pain managent in spine surgery patients. It provides excellent pain relief and patient satisfaction as the patient has a sense of control on their own pain. In this case study we describe the use of a PCEA pump in a peripheral health institute. Also we have discussed the pros and cons of using a PCEA pump in a peripheral health institute.
