Comparative Study[Labor under peridural anesthesia. Experience at the Maternity Center of the Amiens CHRU].
The study has been carried out on 476 epidural deliveries. 69 per cent of the patients were satisfied. Amongst the 31 per cent of unsatisfied, most claimed that the analgesia was not sufficient, mainly due to delayed re-injections. ⋯ The efficacy of the re-injection for post-operative analgesia is also to be noted (92 per cent success). Finally, whatever the stage of perfection of the epidural technique, it is always better to associate the latter with a good psychoprophylaxis.
