Brief Summary
|
This study is conducted to evaluate and compare the minimum local analgesia concentration ( MLAC) of epidural levobupivacaine with fentanyl in patients receiving combined spinal epidural labour analgesia with intrathecal fentanyl with and without levobupivacine. We have included primigravida with full term pregnancy with cephalic presentation in active induced labour. We would like to evaluate whether addition of levobupivacaine intrathecally with fentanyl has an synergistic effect on reducing the MLAC of levobupivacaine with fentanyl epidurally and does it affect the course, quality of analgesia and maternal and fetal outcome of labour. |
