Painless labour

Is it possible?

yes

so many studies has been done on this topic.

meta analysis says painless labour is quite possible in centres where anaesthetist, gynecologist, patient ,nurse ,paediatrician work as a team round the clock .

nitrous oxide plus oxygen combination -patient controlled/doctor decided dose anaesthesia

ketamine

fortwin plus phenargan

tramadol

some GA drugs

epidural top ups with bupivacaine

many options are available.

risks complications must be outweighed with advantages then only it becomes popularise.
