Is labor analgesia useful?

Childbirth is a relatively painful process, especially for mothers who give birth naturally. Almost everyone has to suffer some torture. For this reason, labor analgesia devices, also known as painless labor devices, have begun to appear in today's clinical medicine. The use of painless delivery devices can relieve the pain of childbirth for mothers. Below, we will introduce you to the relevant knowledge about painless delivery devices in detail!

1. Product Introduction

Painless delivery device (analgesic gas ventilator) The pain of labor not only brings great physical suffering to the mother, but also the stress response caused by the pain, anxiety, and even fear, irritability and other adverse stimulations from the mother's groans, which will lead to the excitement of the mother's sympathetic nerves, increased release of catecholamines in the body, inhibition of uterine contractions and contraction of uterine blood vessels, ultimately resulting in prolonged labor, acid-base imbalance, decreased uterine blood flow, fetal distress and other adverse consequences for mother and baby. Therefore, creating a safe and painless delivery environment for mothers is also an important research topic in perinatal medicine.

2. Analgesic Principle

Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, is an inhaled anesthetic. It is a colorless, sweet-tasting inert gas with stable chemical properties. It does not burn or explode. It produces pharmacological effects by inhibiting the release of excitatory neurological substances in the central nervous system, the conduction of nerve impulses, and changing the permeability of ion channels. It has no irritation to the respiratory tract, does not bind to hemoglobin, and has no damage to the heart, lung, liver, and kidney functions. The minimum effective concentration of alveolar gas is 105%. It takes effect quickly after inhalation into the body. 30%-50% is the analgesic concentration or sub-anesthetic concentration, and 80% concentration has an anesthetic effect. These are the pharmacological basis for nitrous oxide to be an ideal labor analgesic. Clinical observations have found that for those who used Antaole, pain was significantly reduced, which was beneficial to the progress of labor. Except for the second stage of labor, the active phase and total labor were shorter than those in the control group.

2. Product Advantages

1. The analgesic effect is good and can shorten the labor process.

2. It does not affect the mode of delivery, does not inhibit the fetal respiratory and circulatory functions, does not increase the amount of postpartum bleeding, and is safe and has no side effects.

3. The mother should remain conscious at all times and actively cooperate to complete the delivery.

4. The effect is rapid and disappears quickly, with no accumulation.

5. It has a sweet taste and does not irritate the respiratory tract, so mothers are happy to accept it.

6. Easy to use, no special equipment or professional anesthesiologist is required to achieve ideal labor analgesia requirements. Especially today when more and more people are afraid of the pain of natural childbirth and request cesarean section, its advantages are more prominent.
