Bupi 0.5%+8% Heavy Intraspinal Injection

• Intrathecal anesthesia, also known as spinal anesthesia or subarachnoid anesthesia, involves the injection of local anesthetics into the subarachnoid space of the spinal canal. This blocks nerve impulses in the spinal cord, leading to loss of sensation and muscle paralysis in the lower part of the body.
• Epidural anesthesia involves the injection of local anesthetics into the epidural space, which is located just outside the spinal cord’s protective covering (the dura mater). This blocks nerve impulses from reaching the spinal cord and provides pain relief in the lower part of the body.
• Subarachnoid anesthesia is another term for intrathecal or spinal anesthesia, as it involves injecting anesthetic agents into the subarachnoid space to achieve anesthesia and analgesia.

These techniques are commonly used for surgical procedures below the waist, such as lower abdominal, pelvic, and lower limb surgeries, as they provide effective pain relief and muscle relaxation in the lower part of the body.
