The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of continuous epidural block on intracranial pressure in pediatric patients undergoing osteotomy of lower extremity. Forty patients, aged 4 years to 13 years, receiving epidural analgesia before osteotomy will be divided into bolus group (n=30) and infusion group (n=30). Randomly selected patients of the bolus group are given 0.3 ml/kg bolus/hr of 0.15% ropivacaine for epidural analgesia. In contrast, patients in the infusion group are administered 0.3 ml/kg/hr 0.15% ropivacaine at a constant rate for epidural analgesia. The primary endpoint is the difference in the optic nerve sheath diameter after epidural analgesia measured by optic nerve ultrasonography between groups.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '13 Years', 'minimumAge': '4 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 1\\.
