Abstract

Objective: Nowadays, the painless childbirth preference of expectant mothers is gradually increasing. The most important and first objective in labor analgesia should be the safety of mother and baby. Our objective in this study is to compare the effects of combined spinal-epidural analgesia (CSE) and epidural analgesia on analgesia quality and labor in labour analgesia.
Methods: Our study was performed prospectively on 40 primigravid pregnant women who requested painless childbirth and were included in the ASAI-II group, between September 1, 2018, and November 30, 2018. Pregnant women who had single fetus at 36-42 weeks, have vertex presentation, no contraindications for regional analgesia, have active contractions and with 3-4 cm cervical opening were randomly divided into two groups in the study. Combined Spino Epidural group (= Group CSE, n = 20), Epidural analgesia group (= Group EPI, n = 20) was determined as the groups. To the pregnant women in the Group CSE, Intrathecal dose in a manner that 2.5 mg hyperbaric bupivacaine + 12.5 µg fentanyl total volume of 1 ml was injected. To the pregnant women in the Group EPI, 20 G epidural catheter was placed with the method used in the first group and fixed to the skin. Epidural analgesia solutions (20 mg bupivacaine + 50 µg fentanyl +15 cc saline) were prepared in 20 cc injectors containing 0.1% bupivacaine + 2.5 µg/ml fentanyl for use in both groups. When the VAS values became 4, these prepared solutions were planned to be given as 10 ml intermittent bolus from these epidural catheters.
Results: The mean values of maternal age, weight, and height, and infant height have not shown any difference according to the groups (p> 0.05). The first VAS median value was obtained as 5 in both groups. However, the VAS values were accumulated in the higher values in the combined spinal-epidural group (p = 0.031). Although the second VRS and VAS median values were lower in the pure epidural, the outlet VRS and VAS values have been obtained lower in the combined spinal-epidural group.
Conclusion: For normal spontaneous vaginal delivery, every mother should be offered labour analgesia options such as CSE analgesia and epidural analgesia. CSE analgesia may be a good alternative to epidural analgesia because of its advantages such as the onset of fast analgesia, shortening the first stage of labour and increasing the comfort of the mother in the outlet.
