06/01/2019 - "In pediatric cardiac surgery, does caudal anesthesia promote early extubation, reduce pain scores, reduce stress responses, and length of stay (LOS)? "
03/01/2010 - "However, the mean VAS for the pain from transrectal prostate biopsy was 1.49 +/- 1.93 SD (range 0-6.0) for the patients with effective caudal anesthesia and 8.02 +/- 1.79 SD (range 5.0-10.0) for patients with no caudal anesthesia. "

02/01/2023 - " This is the first comparative study on caudal anesthesia and spontaneous respiration in infants undergoing laparoscopic versus open inguinal hernia surgery. "
02/01/2023 - " Minimally invasive surgery (i.e., laparoscopy) and minimally invasive anesthesia (i.e., caudal anesthesia with spontaneous respiration) have separately shown benefits for inguinal hernia repair in infants, yet to what degree these techniques can be combined remains unknown. "
02/01/2023 - "Laparoscopic versus Open Inguinal Hernia Repair Is Feasible in Infants with Caudal Anesthesia and Spontaneous Respiration."
04/01/2020 - "Here, we present a fatal course of a premature infant that received caudal anesthesia for inguinal hernia repair. "
06/01/2016 - "We conducted a retrospective chart review on all neonates and infants who underwent inguinal hernia surgery with dexemetomidine sedation and caudal anesthesia in our institution. "

01/01/2023 - "Since the association between caudal anesthesia and hypospadias complications was first suggested, several studies have tried to answer this question with variable results. "
01/01/2023 - "The use of caudal anesthesia at the time of hypospadias repair remains controversial as some prior studies have reported increased postoperative complication rates associated with caudal nerve block. "
01/01/2023 - "Our findings add to the evidence that there is no association between caudal anesthesia and increased hypospadias complications in either the short or long term. "
01/01/2023 - "Given the importance of identifying true risk factors associated with increased hypospadias complication rate, we examined our experience with caudal anesthesia limiting our analysis to distal repairs. "
01/01/2023 - "Caudal anesthesia is not associated with post-operative complications following distal hypospadias repair."

01/01/2008 - "The study analyses the efficacy and the safety of caudal anesthesia for the intra and postoperative pain management in children. "
12/01/2014 - "Recently, ultrasound-guided caudal anesthesia has been performed for postoperative pain management after lumbar spine surgery. "
06/01/1992 - "Intraoperative caudal anesthesia and postoperative pain relief were satisfactory in all 20 subjects. "
10/01/1988 - "The excellent postoperative pain relief produced by caudal anesthesia justifies its frequent use for children subjected to genital surgery.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)"
12/01/2017 - "Caudal anesthesia has been used for postoperative pain control in pediatric surgical patients, but the duration of the analgesic effect is occasionally unsatisfactory. "

11/01/2015 - "(Pediatr Anesth 2012) has suggested that caudal anesthesia may increase the risk of fistula formation. "
02/01/2017 - "The main goal of this study was accomplished by demonstrating that, in our series, caudal anesthesia is associated with a higher risk of fistula formation after undergoing distal hypospadias repair than penile block."
07/01/2017 - "We examined our experience with caudal anesthesia in hypospadias repair to evaluate for increased risk of urethrocutaneous fistula or glanular dehiscence. "

02/01/2017 - "Collected data included hypospadias classification (glanular, coronal, subcoronal), chordee status, perioperative anesthesia (caudal vs. penile), and assessment of postoperative complications (fistula and meatal stenosis). "
