Combined Spinal and Epidural Anaesthesia

Combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia (CSE) is a regional anaesthetic technique, which combines the benefits of both spinal anaesthesia and epidural anaesthesia and analgesia.

The indwelling epidural catheter gives the ability to provide long lasting analgesia and to titrate the dose given to the desired effect.
