Official Title: Incidence and Characteristics of Breakthrough Pain in Parturients Using Computer Integrated Patient Controlled Epidural Analgesia

Brief Summary: The computer-integrated patient controlled epidural analgesia (CIPCEA) system can automatically adjust the background infusion rate during combined spinal-epidural (CSE) analgesia based on the parturient's need as labour progresses. Analysis of parturients experiencing breakthrough pain may identify associated factors that can also be related to obstetric or foetal outcomes
