[Epidural analgesia--effect on the fetus and uterine activity].
The effect of continuous epidural analgesia on the fetus, newborn, and uterine activity was studied in a group of 50 parturients. No untoward effects, either in the fetus or uterine activity, that could be ascribed to this procedure, were observed. The authors use their own modicifation of the epidural block by titrating the amount of the local anesthetic according to the intensity of pain in labour.
