The patient may experience apnea, a drop in blood pressure, and even loss of consciousness within minutes. If the patient is found late or improperly managed, it may cause cardiac arrest. Total spinal anesthesia is the most serious complication of epidural anesthesia. Once total spinal anesthesia occurs, artificial respiration should be performed immediately, intravenous infusion and vasoconstrictor should be accelerated to maintain normal blood pressure, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be performed immediately in case of cardiac arrest. Prophylactic measures include infusion of drugs through epidural catheterization should be pumped back without cerebrospinal fluid reflux before infusion; The experimental dose of 3 ~ 5ml was first given and observed for 5 ~ 10 minutes. If no local anesthetic was mistakenly injected into the subarachnoid space, the injection was continued.
