Assessment of maternal analgesia, satisaction was carried out. Apgar scores and resuscitative measures required for the neonate were note at delivery.


RESULTS
The best analgesic effect was in the group with using peridural analgesia, where max. score was 3. The highest value was in the group of women who received pethidin. The most significant decrease of score after application of analgesia was in group with epidural analgesia, the least decrease of score was in the group with pethidin. The Apgar score at 1. minute was the lowest in the group with epidural analgesia, the highest score was in the group with nalbuphine.


CONCLUSIONS
The mixed agonist/antagonist narcotic analgesic like nalbuphine have the place in clinical practice. The obstetric analgesia is very common in obstetrics practice. The epidural analgesia is very popular but not always accessible. Nalbuphine is the option which is effective in analgesia and have minimal side-effects.
