Brief Summary

Labor analgesia can alleviate intrapartum pain, in the importance of the delivery is very obvious.But some researches think labor analgesia may affect the progress of labor, increase the cesarean section rate.This research adopts the epidural anesthesia to study labor analgesia effects on delivery outcomes and long-term emotional and psychological effects on the mothers. Besides, we also want to study the effect of exercise during pregnancy on the mode of delivery.

Study Arms (2)

Epidural analgesia during labor

EXPERIMENTAL

The epidural analgesia technique was used to maintain analgesia for parturients who request labor analgesia.First, we injected a test dose of 5ml 1% lidocaine . If not adverse effects were observed 10 minutes after the test dose, the parturient then received a bolus injection of an initial dose of 8-10 ml mixed liquids of 0.075% ropivacaine and 0.2ug/ml sufentanil citrate. We then connected the epidural catheter with a patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCA) pump, which provided patients the same mixed solution at 8-10ml/h until the delivery of neonates.

Drug: Ropivacaine Hydrochloride, Sufentanil

Non-epidural analgesia during labor

NO INTERVENTION

Women who refused epidural labor analgesia were included in the non-epidural analgesia group, and they don't receive epidural analgesia during labor

Interventions

In this research one group will receive epidural analgesia(Ropivacaine Hydrochloride, Sufentanil), data will be collected and analyzed between this group and non-epidural analgesia group.
