Intravenous Terbutaline to Facilitate Labor Epidural Catheter Placement

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Labor pain is a major factor in making the placement of an epidural catheter difficult. The epidural, once in place and dosed, eventually decreases the parturient's pain. To achieve this goal as fast and safely as possible it would be helpful to have a parturient who can tolerate and co-operate with the placement of the epidural catheter.

Briefly stopping contractions, the cause of labor pain, could be the key to achieve this goal.

This study will evaluate the safety, efficacy and duration of the drug terbutaline for this purpose.
