Effect of Preemptive Epidural Analgesia in Labor on Pro and Anti-inflammatory Cytokine Production in a Mother and a Newborn

Rabin Medical Center·interventional·Posted Aug 8, 2006·Updated Apr 9, 2018

In Brief

A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Preemptive epidural analgesia and Standard of care for Obstetric Pain. Completed, enrolled 41 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

During labor there is an increased production of inflammatory mediators called cytokines. Higher concentration of certain cytokines has been linked to adverse neonatal and maternal outcomes. Epidural analgesia is commonly performed after the parturient feels labor pain. We hypothesis that preemptive epidural analgesia (initiated before labor pain begins)can influence the production of cytokines.

Interventions

Preemptive epidural analgesiaprocedure

Parturients will receive early epidural analgesia before onset of painful contractions as oppose to standard of care in which parturients receive epidural analgesia with onset of painful contractions.

Standard of caredrug

Epidural analgesia with parturients with cervical dilatation and painful labor (VAS \>5)
