clonidine and Labor Pain

clonidine has been researched along with Labor Pain in 8 studies

Clonidine: An imidazoline sympatholytic agent that stimulates ALPHA-2 ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS and central IMIDAZOLINE RECEPTORS. It is commonly used in the management of HYPERTENSION.
clonidine (amino form) : A clonidine that is 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-amine in which one of the amino hydrogens is replaced by a 2,6-dichlorophenyl group.

Labor Pain: Pain associated with OBSTETRIC LABOR in CHILDBIRTH. It is caused primarily by UTERINE CONTRACTION as well as pressure on the CERVIX; BLADDER; and the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. Labor pain mostly occurs in the ABDOMEN; the GROIN; and the BACK.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To evaluate the quality of analgesia with epidural neostigmine and clonidine, added to initial spinal analgesia, and to test the hypothesis that the incidence of breakthrough pain could be reduced and patient satisfaction improved."5.19Epidural neostigmine and clonidine improves the quality of combined spinal epidural analgesia in labour: a randomised, double-blind controlled trial. ( Boogmans, T; Devroe, S; Roofthooft, E; Valkenborgh, T; Van de Velde, M; Vertommen, J, 2014)
"The addition of clonidine to epidural levobupivacaine and sufentanil for patient-controlled epidural analgesia in labour improved analgesia, reduced the supplementation rate and reduced pruritus without improvement in maternal satisfaction."5.14Effects of a continuous low-dose clonidine epidural regimen on pain, satisfaction and adverse events during labour: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. ( Aubrun, F; Bouret, C; Broisin, F; Charpiat, B; Clement, HJ; Derre, E; Huissoud, C; Lopez, F; Pignal, C; Schoeffler, M; Viale, JP; Wallet, F, 2010)
"Epidural administration of neostigmine and clonidine, following the spinal injection of local anesthetic, has a stronger analgesic effect in managing labor pain and reduces hourly anesthetic consumption."4.91Effects of epidural neostigmine and clonidine in labor analgesia: a systematic review and meta-analysis. ( Xu, MJ; Zhang, N, 2015)
