catheter can be left in place also provide an excellent means for postoperative analgesia. Intercostal
and epidural anesthesia can additionally improve respiratory function following thoracic and upper
abdominal operations and encourage early ambulation. Epidural and possibly spinal anesthesia reduce
the incidence of thromboembolism following hip surgery and attenuate the hypercoagulation state

demonstrated lower mortality and morbidity, as well as reduced hospital costs, with these techniques.
Postoperative analgesic modalities include oral or parenteral analgesics, peripheral nerve blocks,
neuraxial blocks with local anesthetics, intraspinal opioids, as well as adjunctive techniques such as
TENS and physical therapy. Selection of analgesic techniques is generally based on three factors: the
