“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] In addition, maternal satisfaction may be higher with PCEA than with the techniques not involving patient participation. However, an ideal protocol for delivery of PCEA has not been agreed upon, 8,9 with the effectiveness and advisability of a continuous background infusion (CBI) being a key issue. Some investigators have questioned the advantages of a CBI, [10][11][12] suggesting that omitting the infusion would reduce the overall dose of analgesic agents used during labor.…”

“…In contrast to a previous study, shorter PCEA lockout times did not reduce the need for rescue boluses. 12 Because of the patient-controlled bolus function with the PCEA technique, these dilute concentrations were not labor-intensive nor were they associated with increased anesthetic "call-back" as suggested by the authors of the COMET study. 15 The CO-MET study showed that traditional solutions (bupivacaine 0.25%) had fewer physician interventions compared to low dose (bupivacaine 0.1%) continuous labor epidural infusions, although assisted vaginal delivery was more common with the traditional solution.…”

“…7 Potential benefits with PCEA may depend on the type and concentrations of drugs used, the bolus dose and lockout interval selected, and the use of a continuous background infusion. [8][9][10][11][12] The ideal PCEA settings and local anesthetic solutions for labor analgesia have not yet been established. Bernard et al 8 found that increasing the bolus size from 4 mL (lockout 8 min) to 12 mL (lockout 25 min) improved parturient satisfaction.…”
