Summary

This study aims to compare the analgesic efficacy and safety of the Dural Puncture Epidural (DPE) technique versus the Conventional Epidural (CE) technique for labor analgesia in primigravida.

Conditions

  • Labor Pain

Interventions

DEVICE

epidural set

The epidural space will be identified at either the L3-L4 or L4-L5 interspace using the loss of resistance technique with an 18 Gauge Epidural needle.A test dose of 3 mL of 2% lidocaine with epinephrine will be administered to each participant to rule out intravascular or intrathecal placement of the catheter. This ensures the proper placement of the catheter before the full dose of analgesia is administered.Following the test dose, an initial bolus of 8 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine combined with 2 μg/mL fentanyl will be administered to provide effective labor analgesia. Subsequently, maintenance Dose 0.125% 2 ml/0.5 hr
