Epidural Analgesia for Labour and Delivery
Cross-legged Versus Traditional Sitting Position for the Success of Epidural Analgesia During Labor
The success of an epidural analgesia catheter placement depends on the parturient position. A poor posture can increase the number of punctures, patient discomfort, and risk of complications.
