Preventive Analgesia in Multiparas Undergoing Induction of Labour

Summary

Our study is about providing a better birthing experience by placing and initiating epidural for labour pain before the contractions start. This concept of prevention of pain before its onset is known as preventive - or preemptive -pain management and is well known in surgical and anaesthetic practice. We believe that the use of preventive epidural analgesia will improve the quality of labour epidurals, increase maternal satisfaction and reduce the stress response to labour and delivery.
