Comparative Analysis of Ropivacaine and Fenatanyl with Magensium Sulfate and Without for Labour Analgesia

Abstract

Multiple studies have demonstrated that administering magnesium via intravenous or intrathecal methods improves the anesthetic and analgesic qualities of the treatment. In addition, the start, duration of effect, and breakthrough pain of epidurally injected bupivacaine-fentanyl for labour analgesia were all improved by the addition of a single dose of Mg. So, we thought it would be a good idea to compare the efficacy of Mg2SO4, RF, for LP treatment to that of R and F alone in this study. There were a total of 60 patients in our study, and they were split evenly between two groups. Thirty patients in Group RFM received inj.R + F + Mg2SO4, whereas thirty patients in Group RF received inj.R + F + NS. Additionally, heart rate, blood pressure, and pain intensity (VAS score) were recorded just before the surgery began. In our study, we found that after applying the GLM to repeated variables, there were no significant variations in MAP between the two groups (p = 0.502), and no significant variations in FHR& MHR were observed between the two groups as p = 0.808 & p=0.275 respectively . Therefore, we conclude that Mg2SO4 as an adjuvant is safe for both the mother and the neonate
