Methods A total of 220 primiparaes with full-term pregnancy, monocyesis and fetal head presentation without any obstetrical or systematic complications were chosen and divided into analgesic group and control group (110 in each group). The mixture of bupivacaine and anisodamine was injected into the epidural space of the parturients in the analgesic group while those patients in the control group did not receive any analgesics. Results The analgesic effect was satisfactory (91.8%), and no side effects occurred in the second stage of labor. The instrument delivery rate was lower in the analgesic group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups in neonatal Apgar’s score. Conclusion The method is feasible in clinic for labor pain relief without increasing the rate of dystocia and complications of delivery.展开更多

Methods: Primiparae who received vaginal delivery under epidural analgesia in Ankang People's Hospital between March 2015 and February 2017 were selected and randomly divided into accepting the group A who received ropivacaine combined with sufentanil for epidural analgesia and the group B who received ropivacaine alone for epidural analgesia. During the first, the second and the third stage of labor, the serum was collected to determine the levels of pain mediators SP, 5-HT and PGE2 as well as stress hormones NE, E, F-C, AT-II and INS;after delivery, the placenta tissue was collected to determine the expression of stress molecules GRP78, CHOP, Nrf-2 and ARE. Results: Serum SP, 5-HT, PGE2, NE, E, F-C, AT-II and INS levels of group A during the first, the second and the third stage of labor were significantly lower than those of group B;GRP78, CHOP, Nrf-2 and ARE mRNA expression in placental tissue of group A after delivery were significantly lower than those of group B. Conclusion: ropivacaine combined with sufentanil for epidural labor analgesia is more effective than ropivacaine alone in reducing pain and inhibiting stress response.展开更多

However, it is still controversial whether both anesthetics are associated with any clinical benefit relative to bupivacaine for labor analgesia. This study aimed to compare the analgesic efficacy, motor block and side effects of bupivacaine, ropivacaine and levobupivacaine at lower concentrations for patient-controlled epidural labor analgesia. Methods Four hundred and fifty nulliparous parturients were enrolled in this randomized clinical trial. A concentration of 0.05%, 0.075%, 0.1%, 0.125% or 0.15% of either bupivacaine (Group B), ropivacaine (Group R) or levobupivacaine (Group L) with sufentanil 0.5 ug/ml was epidurally administered by patient-controlled analgesia mode. Effective analgesia was defined as a visual analogue scale score was 〈30 mm. The relative median potency for each local anesthetic was calculated using a probit regression model. Parturients demographics, sensory and motor blockade, obstetric data, maternal side effects, hourly volumes of local anesthetic used, and others were also noted. Results There were no significant differences among groups in the numbers of effective analgesia, pain scores, hourly local anesthetic amount used, sensory and motor blockade, labor duration and mode of delivery, side effects and maternal satisfaction (P 〉0.05). The relative median potency was bupivacaine/ropivacaine: 0.828 (0.602-1.091), bupivacaine/levobupivacaine: 0.845 (0.617-1.12), ropivacaine/levobupivacaine: 1.021 (0.774-1.354), respectively. However, a significantly less number of effective analgesia and higher hourly local anesthetic use were observed in the concentration of 0.05% than those of 〉0.1% within each group (P 〈0.05). Conclusions Using patient-controlled epidural analgesia, lower concentrations of bupivacaine, ropivacaine and levobupivacaine with s'ufentanil produce similar analgesia and motor block and safety for labor analgesia. The analgesic efficacy mainly depends on the concentration rather than the type of anesthetics.展开更多

The aim of this study was to measure the pressures generated by two commercially available pumps (CADD PIB, Smiths and Gemstar, Hospira) when delivering PIEB or CEI at 2 commonly used rates of infusion (10 or 5 mL). The two pumps were set to deliver fluid at four rates (CEI: 5 or 10 mL/h;PIEB: 5 or 10 mL every h) and connected to a pressure transducer (PCB Piezotronics 1500 connected to a NI USB-6251 Screw Terminal) to determine the pressures applied during each infusion. The peak pressure generated during the PIEB mode was consistently higher when compared to the CEI mode in both pumps. When comparing the two pumps in the PIEB 10 mL every hour mode, the peak pressures were approximately the same, while the pressure pattern differed. For each cycle the pressure generated by Gemstar oscillated from 25 mmHg to 0 mmHg;whereas with the CADD pump the baseline pressure was above 0. The Gemstar pump piston frequency (1.2 Hz) was twice as high as the CADD (0.5 Hz), so the volume delivered per cycle was lower. In the PIEB 5 mL every hour mode the peak pressures followed the same wave patterns. However, unlike the 10 mL mode, the pump piston frequency was approximately the same in both pumps. In both the CEI 5 or 10 mL/h modes, the CADD peak pressure was four times greater than the Gemstar. Both cycled between their respective peak pressures and 0 mmHg. Since the peak pressure of the CADD was approximately the same with PIEB and CEI, we speculated that the most important factor affecting the distribution of the solution in the epidural space was not the peak pressure per se, but the mode of delivery of the bolus.展开更多

Concerns about pain in labor remain a hot topic, and its popularity gets more common day by day as more women become aware of their rights to achieve a better quality of care during labor. There are various non-pharmacologic (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, hydrotherapy, intradermal water injections and acupuncture) and pharmacologic treatments (nitrous oxide, opioids and regional analgesia techniques: spinal, epidural and combined epidural analgesia) available today. Among these, epidural analgesia offers the most effective form of pain relief and is considered to be the gold standard of labor analgesia. Despite having labor analgesic services, most women still go through painful labor due to lack of knowledge regarding it, particularly in developing countries. The main source of information regarding pain reliefs is from friends and relatives, revealing the lack of information from caregiver’s side. So this study reflects that there is a wide gap in the communication between pregnant women and obstetricians. It supports the fact that obstetricians through the practice of routinely offering labor analgesia can significantly improve the maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancy. Provision of standardized epidural analgesia information at an appropriate time in their pregnancy may benefit them by the practice of mutual decision-making. Thus, it may prevent women from making a difficult choice of cesarean section to avoid the fear of painful labor.展开更多

文摘Objective: To study the efficacy of ropivacaine combined with sufentanil and ropivacaine alone for epidural labor analgesia. Methods: Primiparae who received vaginal delivery under epidural analgesia in Ankang People's Hospital between March 2015 and February 2017 were selected and randomly divided into accepting the group A who received ropivacaine combined with sufentanil for epidural analgesia and the group B who received ropivacaine alone for epidural analgesia. During the first, the second and the third stage of labor, the serum was collected to determine the levels of pain mediators SP, 5-HT and PGE2 as well as stress hormones NE, E, F-C, AT-II and INS;after delivery, the placenta tissue was collected to determine the expression of stress molecules GRP78, CHOP, Nrf-2 and ARE. Results: Serum SP, 5-HT, PGE2, NE, E, F-C, AT-II and INS levels of group A during the first, the second and the third stage of labor were significantly lower than those of group B;GRP78, CHOP, Nrf-2 and ARE mRNA expression in placental tissue of group A after delivery were significantly lower than those of group B. Conclusion: ropivacaine combined with sufentanil for epidural labor analgesia is more effective than ropivacaine alone in reducing pain and inhibiting stress response.
文摘Objective To re-evaluate the systematic review of the safety and effectiveness of epidural analgesia(EA)for labor analgesia.Methods The Cochrane database,PubMed,EMBASE,EBSCO,Web of Science,ScienceDirect,China Biomedical Literature database,CNKI,Wanfang and VIP databases were searched,and the search time was limited to August 2020.Two researchers screened the literature and extracted data according to the inclusion criteria.AMSTAR was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included studies.Pain intensity and pain relief satisfaction were used as the main indicators for re-evaluation of the effectiveness.Midwifery rate,cesarean section rate,back pain,fever,nausea and vomiting,umbilical artery pH value,and newborn Apgar score were used as the main indicators to re-evaluate the safety.Results and Conclusion A total of 9 meta-analyses were included.The safety and effectiveness of EA and opioid intravenous analgesia,acupuncture stimulation,inhalation analgesia,no analgesia,and continuous delivery were evaluated separately.The included systematic reviews showed that EA could increase the rate of device-assisted delivery,causing maternal fever,and prolonging the first and second stages of labor.But the incidence of back pain,nausea,and vomiting was lower.Therefore,analgesia had a good effect with better satisfactory degree.Current evidence shows that EA is safe and effective for labor analgesia,but the quality of the reports of current studies is not high.

There are various non-pharmacologic (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, hydrotherapy, intradermal water injections and acupuncture) and pharmacologic treatments (nitrous oxide, opioids and regional analgesia techniques: spinal, epidural and combined epidural analgesia) available today. Among these, epidural analgesia offers the most effective form of pain relief and is considered to be the gold standard of labor analgesia. Despite having labor analgesic services, most women still go through painful labor due to lack of knowledge regarding it, particularly in developing countries. The main source of information regarding pain reliefs is from friends and relatives, revealing the lack of information from caregiver’s side. So this study reflects that there is a wide gap in the communication between pregnant women and obstetricians. It supports the fact that obstetricians through the practice of routinely offering labor analgesia can significantly improve the maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancy. Provision of standardized epidural analgesia information at an appropriate time in their pregnancy may benefit them by the practice of mutual decision-making. Thus, it may prevent women from making a difficult choice of cesarean section to avoid the fear of painful labor.
文摘目的评估硬膜外分娩镇痛(LEA)对产妇产后抑郁(PPD)的影响。方法选择经阴道分娩的初产妇628例,年龄20~36岁,BMI 20~35 kg/m 2,ASAⅡ或Ⅲ级。根据产妇是否接受硬膜外分娩镇痛分为两组:镇痛组(n=322)和非镇痛组(n=306)。记录分娩期间VAS疼痛评分最高值、产程时间、出血量、新生儿1、5 min Apgar评分和新生儿入NICU的发生情况。于分娩前1周和产后2周、6周分别采用爱丁堡产后抑郁量表(EPDS)评估PPD发生情况(EPDS评分≥11分为PPD),采用广泛性焦虑量表(GAD-7)评估产妇焦虑情绪,采用领悟社会支持量表(PSSS)评估产妇感受到的总社会支持度。结果与非镇痛组比较,镇痛组产妇分娩期间VAS疼痛评分最高值明显降低(P<0.05)。两组产妇第一产程时间、第二产程时间、出血量、新生儿1、5 min Apgar评分、新生儿入NICU比例差异无统计学意义。两组产妇产后2、6周PPD发生率、PSSS高支持状态、GAD-7≥10分差异无统计学意义。结论初产妇接受LEA不影响产后抑郁的发生风险。
文摘目的研究硬膜外分娩镇痛引起的发热对产科分娩方式和助产方式的影响。方法对2020年1-6月于济宁医学院附属医院接受硬膜外分娩镇痛的孕妇病例进行回顾性队列研究。孕妇行硬膜外分娩镇痛后,根据有无发热将其分为发热组和非发热组。研究主要结局是硬膜外分娩镇痛相关发热对产科分娩方式,助产方式的影响,次要结局是抗生素使用情况以及新生儿因呼吸窘迫综合征或脓毒症收入重症医学病房(intensive care unit,ICU)的发生情况。结果本研究开始纳入856例孕妇,最终574例孕妇符合标准并对其临床资料进行了分析,其中硬膜外分娩镇痛相关发热128例(发热组),未发热446例(未发热组)。发热组剖宫产发生率为16.4%,未发热组剖宫产发生率7.3%,二者差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。抗生素使用情况在发热组12.5%,未发热组2.2%,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.001)。两组经阴分娩产妇之间助产、侧切以及新生儿因呼吸窘迫综合征或脓毒血症入ICU差异没有统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论硬膜外分娩镇痛引起的非感染性发热会增加产妇剖宫产发生率以及孕妇围产期抗生素使用率,但对于经阴助产需求以及新生儿因呼吸窘迫综合征或脓毒血症入ICU情况影响差异无统计学意义。
