Perceptions of Obstetric Analgesia: a qualitative study among midwives attending normal vaginal deliveries in Durame Hospital, Southern Ethiopia
Journal of pain research, 2019Co-Authors: Teketel Ermias Geltore, Abraham Getachew Kelbore, Abiy Tadesse AngeloAbstract:Background Labor pain is distressing and produces undue side effects to both woman and fetus. In low-income countries like Ethiopia, addressing pain relief is often neglected. Professionals attending labor may not have awareness of Obstetric Analgesia. Besides this, there is a lack of published research on perceptions of Obstetric Analgesia among health professionals in Ethiopia. The aim of this study was to explore perceptions of Obstetric Analgesia among midwives attending normal vaginal deliveries in Durame Hospital. Methods The study adopted an exploratory descriptive qualitative approach in Durame General Hospital, Kembata Tembaro Zone, Southern Ethiopia from March 1 to April 2, 2017. Fifteen midwives were purposely selected and participated in in-depth interviews. Data from interviews were transcribed, translated to English, coded, and categorized into themes. Data analysis was initiated alongside data collection using a thematic approach. Written informed consent was obtained from all study participants. Results Scarcity of knowledge, negative attitudes, lack of trained personnel, and absence of protocols were impediments to using labor Analgesia for midwives to relieve labor pain. Conclusion This study suggests that perceptions and practices of midwives with regard to labor Analgesia needs special attention to address labor pain by scaling up forms and practice of labor Analgesia in such a way that internationally accepted standards are met.

utilization of Obstetric Analgesia in labor pain management and associated factors among Obstetric caregivers in public health facilities of kembata tembaro zone southern ethiopia
Journal of Pain Research, 2018Co-Authors: Teketel Ermias Geltore, Ayanos Taye, Abraham Getachew KelboreAbstract:Background Nowadays, Obstetric Analgesia is provided routinely in most developed countries. However, in developing countries, labor pain management is not a well-established service. The poor utilization of labor Analgesia in low-income countries including Ethiopia results in laboring mothers in unmeasured suffering, let alone Analgesia. The aim of this study was to assess utilization of Obstetric Analgesia in labor pain management and associated factors among Obstetric caregivers in public health facilities of KTZ, Kembata Tembaro zone, Southern Ethiopia. Materials and methods A facility-based cross-sectional study design was conducted among all Obstetric caregivers at KTZ in public health facilities from March to April 2017. Data were collected by a pretested, self-administered, and structured questionnaire. A convenient sampling technique was used and descriptive analysis was done to characterize the study population. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify factors associated with utilization of labor Analgesia. The adjusted odds ratio with 95% CI was used to show the strength of the association and a P-value <0.05 was used to declare the cutoff point in determining the level of significance. Results Three hundred forty respondents participated in the study with a response rate of 93%. The prevalence of labor Analgesia use by the respondents was 37.9%. On multivariable logistic regression analyses, inadequate knowledge, positive attitude, and unavailability of labor Analgesia drugs were significant independent predictors of Obstetric Analgesia utilization. Conclusion Proportion of Analgesia utilization was low; inadequate knowledge, positive attitude, and unavailability of Analgesia drugs in the facilities were significantly associated with Obstetrics Analgesia utilization. Health institutions and health personnel should work on provision of training for those Obstetric care providers, and necessary drugs should be available in each facility.

The current status of Obstetric Analgesia and anesthesia in Italy
Minerva anestesiologica, 1999Co-Authors: Antonucci S, Franco Marinangeli, G. Facchetti, Giustino VarrassiAbstract:BACKGROUND There is a more and more vivid interest regarding methods of Obstetric Analgesia and anesthesia while there is a lack of epidemiological data about the Italian reality. Aim of the study was to evaluate the current state of Obstetric Analgesia and anesthesia and create an interest for anesthesiologists in a professionally and scientifically interesting field. METHODS DESIGN transversal study of clinical observation of the Italian situation based on questionnaires composed of 20 multiple choice and closed questions, addressed to chief anesthesiologists of 220 randomized Italian hospitals. SETTING 220 Italian hospitals having a capacity of more than 100 beds. RESULTS Out of the 220 questionnaires, 91 were returned. Merely 17 hospitals guaranteed a permanent peridural analgesic service. To improve this situation, anesthesiologists call for introducing chargeable services and increasing the medical staff. In spite of the widely documented advantages that regional anesthesia offers for maternal and fetal well-being, this technique is practised in only 26% of cesarean sections. This percentage is greatly higher than that obtained from a similar experience in 1991, where the use of regional anesthesia technique was of 3-4%. In 11 hospitals postoperative Analgesia is not carried out on a regular basis. CONCLUSIONS Even though the general opinion is showing a growing interest for Obstetric Analgesia and anesthesia, it has not yet reached the same dignity as in other countries.
