Effects of advanced epidural cavity catheter analgesia on delivery modes and outcomes
Abstract：Objective To observe the effects of advanced epidural cavity catheter analgesia on delivery modes and outcomes. Methods 120 parturient women with epidural labor were divided into group A and group B, with 60 cases in each group. In group A,there were regular contractions,orifice of the uterus < 3 cm,and the epidural catheter was used to relieve pain when the women were unable to endure delivery pain. In group B,there were regular contractions,orifice of the uterus ≥3 cm,and the epidural catheter was inserted into the catheter and analgesia was immediately administered. The effects of analgesia were compared between the two groups. Results Both of group A and group B had good delivery analgesia effects,and there were no significant difference between them(P > 0. 05). However,group A had more initiative in the timing of analgesia than group B,and the satisfaction degree of delivery anesthesia in group A was higher than that in group B(P < 0. 05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the rate of using oxytocin,the rate of transferring to caesarean section,the time for the first stage of labor,the blooding volume 2 hours after delivery,and the Apgar scores of the newborns in 1 minute (P > 0. 05). Conclusion The analgesic effect of epidural catheterization is safe,reliable and satisfying for the mothers and their newborns.
