16 Απρ 2022 · In this review, we describe variations of modern labor epidural analgesia, conduct an in-depth review of current literature on its use, and explore the most up-to-date evidence on its implications for the progression and outcomes of labor, including the pertinent maternal and fetal side effects.
12 Μαρ 2022 · Lumbar epidural provides highly effective labor analgesia and has become the benchmark against which other forms of analgesia are compared. Despite this, research into labor epidural analgesia is heterogeneous with no universally agreed standard technique and inconsistency in outcome reporting.
Epidural analgesia is associated with maternal pyrexia (temperature ≥38°C), with an odds ratio of 4.0 (95% CI 2.0–7.7). The degree of this pyrexia increases with the duration of labour. Nulliparity and labour longer than 12 h were also independent predictors for maternal pyrexia.
19 Ιουν 2022 · In extremely rare situations, they may result in complications such as permanent nerve damage. These factors affect the use of epidural analgesia for painless labor. In developed countries, epidural analgesia is popular and widely used for pain relief in parturients [6,7].
3 Μαρ 2021 · Recent research has suggested that 6 cm of cervical dilation should be the threshold for the active labor phase, and it has confirmed that epidural analgesia (EA) is a safe method of pain relief during labor.
Key points. •. Contemporary analgesia for labour includes epidural, spinal, combined spinal–epidural (CSE) and ‘dural puncture epidural’ (DPE) techniques. •. Neuraxial labour analgesia is best performed with low concentrations of local anaesthetic agents and low-dose opioids. •.
24 Ιαν 2024 · Neuraxial labor analgesia may be performed to relieve the pain of labor and to provide an in-situ epidural catheter for rapid conversion to surgical anesthesia for operative delivery, should it become necessary.
