Spinal Analgesia as Fast Track Painless Labor

NCT05271760 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 102

Last updated 2023-04-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this prospective, randomized, and controlled trial was to compare the efficacy of single-shot spinal analgesia to typical conventional treatments (continuous epidural analgesia and spinal-epidural combination) in reducing labor pain, particularly in multiparous women.

we will enroll in each of the three groups(S group= single-shot Spinal group), (E group= Continuous Epidural), and (C group = combined spinal-epidural) women in advanced active labor and fulfill inclusion criteria.

Conditions

  • Labor Pain
  • Pain, Postoperative
  • Pain, Acute

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Single-shot spinal analgesia

The intrathecal medication included 1ml of 0.5% heavy bupivacaine (5 mg) and 25 μg fentanyl, CSF barbotage will do to reach a total volume of 2 ml

PROCEDURE

Continuous epidural analgesia

Epidural analgesia is performed using a 16-gauge Tuohy epidural needle using a loss-of-resistance- to-saline technique, upon feeling the loss of resistance an epidural catheter will be introduced cranially through the needle for 5 cm in the L3-L4 epidural space, after negative aspiration for blood or spinal fluid a test dose of 3 ml lidocaine 1.5% with epinephrine 1:200000 will be given via inserted catheter, 10 ml of 0.125 % bupivacaine and 2ug/ml fentanyl will be injected as a loading dose then the solution will infuse in a rate of 6 -14 ml/h.

PROCEDURE

Combined spinal-epidural analgesia

Epidural analgesia is performed using a combined spinal-epidural set. using a loss-of-resistance- to-saline technique, upon feeling the loss of resistance, once epidural space will be detected, 27 G Whitacre spinal needle inserted through Touhy epidural needle, intrathecal injection of 1ml of 0.5% heavy bupivacaine (5 mg) and 25 μg fentanyl, CSF barbotage will do to reach a total volume of 2 ml. Then an epidural catheter will be introduced cranially through the needle for 5 cm in the L3-L4 epidural space, after negative aspiration for blood or spinal fluid. 10 ml of 0.125 % bupivacaine and 2ug/ml fentanyl will be injected as a loading dose then the solution will infuse at a rate of 6 -14 ml/h if needed.
