Tell shortly, please, that such epidural anesthesia at sorts or labors how it or her do or make, how much or as far as often and whether dearly or expensively?

[Pasenjuk A.M.]

Epidural anesthesia is a frequent method of a labour pain relief. The short consists in introduction in an epidural space of anesthetic (the nyxis in a back " is carried out ") which blocks painful impulses going in a brain. Pluss - are not present a pain, reveals shejka uteruses more quickly, but there are minuses - it is required skilled or experienced anasteziolog (in order to prevent complications), patrimonial activity can be slowed down. Cost is included usually into the contract on labors.

I not the doctor, but at me drug-the anaesthesiologist who just does or makes epiduralku in a maternity home in Sankt-Petersburg. I at it or him have inquired all. He speaks, that epidural anesthesia has more complications, than at other kinds of anesthesias. Contraindications: who had traumas, strong brain concussions, or very bent backbone or during pregnancy very low pressure (all time below 100/55). For the others risk absolutely small. Patrimonial activity, as he said, really, is slowed down often, but in its or his expert, not too strongly. That is he speaks, that " well, on an hour will give birth or travail more ". Badly here that: in ideal variante-you do not feel a pain, but save the control over attempts, in "average" sluchae-you can make an effort, but not so is strong, as without anesthesia, and in plohom-completely lose the control over attempts that is bad for the child. In avoidance of it or this very good anaesthesiologist is necessary, it is desirable to agree with it or him in advance that he was on your sorts or labors, instead of simply on duty anaesthesiologist. About the prices: at us (in Petersburg) a difference kolebletsja from 1500 up to 3000 roubles for the individual anaesthesiologist (that is he and among night on your labors will arrive). Anesthesia does not enter Into the usual contract, but if agrees the doctor on duty, it + to dogovormu 300 1000 rub in different maternity homes. Naturally, in Moscow all is more dear or expensive, but the order of the prices about same. Oh has still recollected, that the friend has told or said. Except for a nyxis in a back, there is even a way to enter epidural anesthesia through a catheter. In his opinion, it is better. But in different maternity homes different techniques.
