Groups2

Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Epidural Fentanyl
A continuous epidural infusion of fentanyl 10 mcg/cc at a basal infusion rate of 10 ml/hr with a patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) demand dose of 5 mL/hr for pain. Meperidine 25 mg intravenously every 1 hour for breakthrough pain as needed.~Epidural fentanyl: The subjects will receive epidural fentanyl 10 mcg/mL with the rate of 10mL/hr.

Group 2Epidural Bupivacaine Plus Fentanyl (Bupivacaine)
A continuous epidural infusion of bupivacaine plus fentanyl during the second stage (i.e. 10 cm dilation) of labor. Epidural infusion are 10 ml/hr basal infusion plus 5 ml/hr demand dose via patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA). Meperidine 25 mg intravenously every 1 hour for breakthrough pain as needed .~Epidural Bupivacaine plus fentanyl: The subjects will receive 0.125% bupivacaine with fentanyl 2 mcg/mL at a rate of 10 mL/hr.
