事实证明，在顺利分娩后，用于分娩镇痛而放置的腰椎硬膜外导管很难拔除。当患者处于导管插入位置（即坐位）时，牢固稳定的牵引力可将导管拔出，并显露距其尖端 4 毫米的结。将过量的导管送入硬膜外腔可能是导致这种并发症的原因。建议制定预防和尽量减少这种并发症的指南。 (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
A lumbar epidural catheter placed for labor analgesia proved to be difficult to remove after an uneventful delivery. With the patient in the position of catheter insertion, i.e. seated, firm and steady traction allowed removal of the catheter and revealed a knot 4 mm from its tip. Passing excessive amount of catheter into the epidural space may have contributed to this complication. Guidelines to prevent and to minimize this complication are suggested. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
