Official title
Conversion of Labor Analgesia for Intrapartum Cesarean Delivery: Dural Puncture Epidural vs Combined Spinal Epidural vs Epidural
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
As the dural puncture epidural (DPE) is increasing in popularity for labor analgesia, it is important to understand how it impacts outcomes in parturients. Prior studies have found epidural catheters placed via the combined-spinal epidural technique have greater success at surgical conversion for cesarean delivery than catheters placed via traditional techniques. The investigators aim to determine if epidural catheters placed by a DPE technique will also have an increased successful conversion for surgical anesthesia by conducting a retrospective review of all CD during the study period. If an association is found, this could be another benefit of DPE for labor analgesia.
