Epidural Analgesia on Electrophysiological Function

Women in the CSEA group received CSEA during labor. An intravenous line was established when the uterine opening measured 1-2 cm. Then sufentanil (5-7 μg) was injected intrathecally. When the visual analogue pain score was 3 or higher, a mixture of ropivocaine (0.143%) and sufentanil (0.3 μg/ml) was continuously infused into the epidural space using an analgesia pump until the cervix was fully dilated. Load capacity was 5 ml. The analgesic plane was controlled under T10.
