The pharmacodynamics of epidural blockade with 0.5% ropivacaine and varying concentrations of glucose among patients for major gynecologic surgery a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study

Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of varying concentrations of glucose (0%, 0.42%, 0.83% and 1.25%) on the onset, maximal spread and two-segment regression of 0.5% ropivacaine (20 mL) injected into the epidural space through the L2-3 ot L3-4 interspace.
