Objectives: Parturients in labor experiencing severe pain may develop several complications, which could be avoided using various forms of labor analgesia. Researchers hold divergent opinions about the effect of epidural analgesia (EA) on labor duration and delivery mode. This paper aims to establish if EA affects the duration of the 1st and the 2nd phase of labor and the percentage of emergency Cesarean sections (CS) and instrumental delivery. Material and methods: The patients in this cohort study were recruited at St. Sophia's Specialist Hospital in Warsaw, between January 1st, 2020, and June 1st, 2020. We used following inclusion criteria: patients aged 18-40 with singleton pregnancies and cephalic presentation of the fetus who gave live birth at a gestational age of 37-42 weeks to neonates with birthweight 2500-4250 g and received EA at the cervical dilation between three and six centimeters. The control group didn't receive anesthesia. We excluded planned CS and vaginal births after CS. Data analysis was performed for all parturients and separately for multiparas and nulliparas. Results: Out of 2550 deliveries, we included 1052 patients -- 443 participants with EA and 609 in the control group. Patients with epidural analgesia experienced longer labor 415 vs 255 min (p < 0.01), longer 1st and 2nd stage (p < 0.01). They had a lower risk of emergency CS (OR = 0.56) (p < 0.01) but were more likely to have instrumental delivery. Conclusions: Epidural analgesia prolongs the first and the second stage of labor yet doesn't affect neonatal outcomes. Moreover, the risk of emergency CS in nulliparas with EA is three times lower.
