Continuous postoperative pain relief produced by epidural block with bupivacaine and buprenorphine was evaluated in 12 patients after thoracotomy, 19 patients after upper abdominal surgery, and 14 patients after lower abdominal surgery. Patients initially received 8 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine and 0.1 mg of buprenorphine at recovery room in operating theater and continuously received the mixture of 0.25% bupivacaine and 5 micrograms.ml-1 buprenorphine at a rate of 1 ml.h-1 using a portable pump. About fifty percent of the patients did not need additional narcotics during 48 postoperative hours. About ninety percent of the patients needed one additional narcotics during 48 postoperative hours. The authors conclude that epidural analgesia with the mixture of bupivacaine and buprenorphine produces satisfactory postoperative pain relief.
