Dexmedetomidine for Intermittent Epidural Boluses Versus Continuous Epidural Infusion for Labour Epidural Analgesia

Sponsor: Assiut University

Summary

The aim of this study is to compare two modes of labour epidural analgesia: programmed intermittent epidural boluses (PIEB) versus continuous epidural infusion (CEI), with patient controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA), using dexmedetomidine in addition to low-dose bupivacaine and through measuring the total volume of local anesthetic received through patient controlled epidural analgesia per hour
