A. itching
B. hypotension
C. hypoventilation
D. sedation
E. urinary retention
Answers:
- true
- false
- true
- true
- true
Explanation:
Respiratory depression, (more specifically delayed respiratory depression with intrathecal morphine) is the most feared complication of intrathecal opioids
Pruritus is an extremely common side effect
Urinary retention is thought to be common with intrathecal morphine but not with lipophilic opioids.
Nausea and vomiting are associated with opioid use regardless of the route of administration.
The other side effects of sedation, delayed gastric emptying and sweating are probably no more an issue than with systemic opioids.
