Abstract:
Objective To observe and compare the efficacy and safety of chloroprocaine and ropivacaine for epidural labor analgesia.Methods 86 cases of voluntary acceptance of maternal painless natural childbirth were selected in the study.43 cases were given chloroprocaine epidural analgesia (chloroprocaine group),and the other 43 cases were given ropivacaine epidural analgesia (ropivacaine group).The pain (VAS score),lower limb motor block degree(MBS score),fetal heart rate(FHR) and contractions duration of maternal prenatal and medication immediately after 10min,20min,40min,80min were compared between two groups.The first,second and third stage of labor and fetal output after 1 min,5min,10min Apgar score were compared.The incidence of adverse events were observed.Results In the chloroprocaine group,the 10min VAS score was (2.10 ± 1.02),which was significantly lower than (4.31 ± 1.13) in the ropivacaine group (t =4.565,P < 0.05).In the chloroprocaine group,analgesia 20min MBS score was (0.24 ± 0.03),which was significantly higher than (0.11 ± 0.04) in the ropivacaine group (t =4.126,P < 0.05).In the chloroprocaine group,4 cases occurred nerve injury,which was more than the ropivacaine group (1 case),the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.263,P < 0.05).Conclusion Chloroprocaine and ropivacaine for epidural labor analgesia have superior efficacy and the clinical efficacy is similar.Chloroprocaine has the advantage of quick results,but the medication about 20min time period that the drug might lead to a greater degree of lower limb motor block,and has the risk of nerve injury,pregnant women can choose according to their medication.
