Abstract

Labour is an intense and often painful experience with as many as 30% of mothers finding it much more painful than expected. Neuraxial techniques are the gold standard for intrapartum labour analgesia. We in our study , studied the efficacy of epidural labour analgesia in the parturient women using low dose bupivacaine (0.0625%) and its maternal outcome with regards tothe duration of labour , mode of delivery, and pain relief and neonatal outcome. In our study there is significant reduction in duration of first stage of labour and total duration of labour with no alteration of second and third stages of labour. The primary caesarean section rate, vaginal delivery rate were similar with a slight increase in the instrumental delivery. Labour epidural analgesia is the cornerstone in the management of pain during labour.
