Development of Variable Volume Automated Mandatory Boluses for Patient-controlled Epidural Analgesia During Labour
Sponsor: KK Women's and Children's Hospital
Summary
A novel epidural delivery regimen was developed: Variable volume automated mandatory bolus (AMB) (VVAMB) will advance individualisation of labour epidural analgesia, by which a larger volume of bolus may contribute to better spread of the local anaesthetics within brief period and thereby reduces the chances of motor blockade that could reduce instrumental deliveries.
