摘要
Intrathecal morphine is an effective technique for providing postoperative analgesia after major surgical procedures in children. Pruritus is a common side effect associated with intrathecal morphine. We report two patients who experienced significant pruritus associated with intrathecal morphine administration and were successfully treated with ondansetron Ondansetron appears to be a beneficial and safe method of relieving pruritus associated with intrathecal morphine.
