The aim of this study was to compare the postpartum recovery of pregnant women who had vaginal delivery with and without neuraxial labor analgesia using the ObsQoR-10 scoring system.
In this study, we planned to conduct a study to compare the postpartum recovery of pregnant women according to patient-reported outcome measures using the ObsQoR-10 score in vaginal deliveries with and without neuraxial labor analgesia (dural puncture epidural or combined spino epidural analgesia). In this study, after obtaining the approval of the ethics committee of Atatürk University Faculty of Medicine Hospital and written informed consent of the patients, 40 pregnant women who will deliver vaginally with or without neuraxial analgesia will be prospectively enrolled. Patients will be randomized by a statistician using a computerized random numbers table and divided into 2 equal groups as Group A and Group B. Pregnant women in Group A will receive neuraxial labor analgesia (dural puncture epidural or combined spino epidural analgesia), while Group B will not. If postpartum analgesic needs arise, patients in Group A will receive 0.0625% bupivacaine via epidural route, while pregnant women in Group B will receive iboprufen and acetaminophen if needed. ObsQoR-10 scores of the postpartum patients will be evaluated and recorded at discharge. In addition, basic demographic information and medical, analgesic and obstetric parameters related to the peripartum period will be recorded.
