Summary

Combined spinal-epidural (CSE) for labor analgesia has been associated with fetal bradycardia and uterine hypertonia, possibly due to asymmetric decrease in catecholamine levels, when compared with epidural analgesia (EP).

Conditions

  • Fetal Bradycardia
  • Hypertonic Uterine
  • Catecholamines
