Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the dural puncture epidural technique (DPET) with either 25-gauge spinal needle or 27-gauge spinal needle versus conventional epidural technique and evaluate whether DPET improves onset and spread of labor analgesia and if there is a role of the usage of different sized needles as regards block efficiency and complications.
