NCT ID: NCT04287699 Active, not recruiting - Labor Pain Clinical Trials

The Effect of Labor Dance on Traumatic Birth Perception and Comfort

labordance
Start date: May 15, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

ne of the non-pharmacological methods that provide opportunities such as massage and freedom of movement with the support of the spouse / partner is the birth dance. In order to reduce the pain perceived by the woman and provide emotional support, the birth dance is started in the active phase of the first phase of the labor and continues until the end of the first phase. The woman is given the opportunity to act rhythmically with a relaxing light music with someone she prefers (spouse / partner, mother, midwife, etc.). The hands of the pregnant woman dance in the form of swinging from left to right, on the shoulder of his wife, with music; The partner is massaged by the sacrum area. It is aimed to increase the effectiveness of the method applied by adding spouse / partner support, upright posture and massage in addition to the music and body movements that dance includes, and also to provide emotional support to the woman. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of birth dance on traumatic birth perception and comfort.

Determination of the Optimal "Next Bolus" Interval for Programmed Intermittent Bolus Epidural Analgesia

Start date: June 5, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The current standard of practice for the maintenance of epidural analgesia is through use of a continuous infusion pump. Enhanced technology now supports the use of programmed intermittent bolus (PIEB) administration. This novel drug delivery system provides small boluses of local anesthetic and opioid at programmed intervals. Several studies suggest that administration of PIEB allows a more extensive spread of local anesthetic in the epidural space and provides superior labour analgesia compared to traditional continuous epidural infusions. PIEB is associated with lower anesthetic consumption, a shorter second stage of labour and greater patient satisfaction. The authors are focusing on a PIEB setting known as the "Next Bolus". "Next Bolus" (NB) determines when the first PIEB bolus is given after the initiation of the epidural and starting the PIEB pump. Currently we set this to be 15-45 minutes. In an attempt to optimize resources, authors hope to determine the optimal NB interval that will provide adequate analgesia but limit overall drug consumption. An optimally timed next bolus should minimize drug costs and limit nurse and physician intervention by decreasing the need for manual boluses.Increased local anesthetic consumption can cause undesirable side effects such as itchiness, decreased blood pressure and motor blockade. By assigning patients to receive the NB at 15, 30 or 45 minutes the authors hope to find the interval that provides analgesia while minimizing side effects, improving patient safety. If the bolus is given too late then there may be increased pain, less patient satisfaction, and the need for more analgesia in the form of Patient Controlled Epidural Anesthesia or a manual bolus.The authors hope that determining the NB will result in an institutional change to improve patient outcomes and facilitate knowledge transfer. This information will be the first available research to help guide other obstetrical centres using PIEB technology in determining the optimal NB interval.

The Effect of Oxycodone to the Placental Circulation at Early Labour

oksisynnII
Start date: February 1, 2015
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Oxycodone is used to treat pain in early labor, however the effect of oxycodone to placental or fetal circulation has not been evaluated. Oxycodone is increasingly used to treat labor pain in the early phase. The aim of the randomised, double blinded, placebo controlled study was to evaluate the effects of oxycodone in placental circulation, efficacy and safety of oxycodone and the effects to the newborn.

NCT ID: NCT02271100 Active, not recruiting - Labor Pain Clinical Trials

Assessment of the Use of Ultrasound for Epidural Catheter Placement and Comparison With Palpation Technique

Start date: October 25, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is intended to determine whether ultrasound imaging can improve the ability to place a spinal or epidural needle in obstetric anesthesia. By evaluating the use of ultrasound for the placement of epidural catheters the investigators hope to answer two questions: 1. How does the traditional technique based on palpation compare to one using ultrasound to place an epidural catheter? 2. Does ultrasound reduce one potential risk in epidural placement?
