First to use nitrous oxide as a labor anesthetic in 1881
Conclusions: The literature addressing nitrous oxide for the management of labor pain includes few studies of good or fair quality. Further research is needed across all of the areas examined: effectiveness satisfaction and adverse events.

• No effect on fetal heart rate
• No effect on cord gases
• No effect on APGAR scores
• No effect on newborn respiration
• No effect on neonatal behavioral scores
• No effect on duration of labor
• No effect on mode of delivery
“… it may be almost impossible to perform human studies addressing whether in utero exposure of nitrous during labor has adverse affects on the infant central nervous system… Thus women who ask to use N2O/O2 during labor should be informed of that we lack data about this outcome.”
A&A 2014: 118(1):12-14
Eur J Anaesthesiol 2015; 32:1–4
Conclusions:“An extensive amount of clinical evidence indicates that N2O can be used safely for procedural pain management (in the emergency room, in the normal ward or in a prehospital situation), for the management of labour pain, and for anxiolysis and sedation”
Eur J Anaesthesiol 2015; 32:1–4
Conclusions:• “ There is currently no clinically relevant evidence for the withdrawal of N2O from the armamentarium of anaesthesia practice”
• “There is no evidence indicating that the use of N2O in a modern clinically relevant setting increases health risk in patients or providers”

“… the story of how nitrous oxide is being reintroduced for the benefit of women in the United States is significant. Rediscovery can be as important, if not more important, than the original discovery.

Remifentanil Objectives
• Review Use of Remifentanil in Labor
– Alternative to Other Narcotics or Epidural Analgesia
Remifentanil and Pregnancy• The placenta contains nonspecific esterases• Fetal esterases nearly fully developed at birth• Within 5-10 minutes of turning off an infusion
there is virtually no residual effect.• Remifentanil can be turned off minutes before
delivery without fetal respiratory depression
Remifentanil and Pregnancy
• Plasma concentrations in pregnancy are ½ of non-pregnancy due to a larger volume of distribution and higher clearance
• Crosses the placenta, but rapidly metabolized and redistributed in fetus

• Remifentanil
• Bolus 0.25 mcg/kg q 2min
• Infusion .025 -.05 mcg/kg/min, 4hr limit 3mg
• Fentanyl
• Bolus 25 - 50 mcg q 3 to 6 min
• No Infusion, 4hr limit up to 1.5mg
Marwah et al. Can J Anesth (2012); 59:246-54
• No difference in pain scores between groups
• Moderate decrease in pain from baseline
• More transient desaturation with remi 13% vs 2%
• More neonates in the fentanyl group required
resuscitation 59% vs 25%
Remifentanil and Labor:
Van de Velde et al. Int J Obstet Anesth 2016; 25: 66-74.
Side Effects of Remifentanil:• Mild transient maternal desaturation• Mild sedation• Nausea and vomiting (0% to 60%)• No notable neonatal effects (APGARS and cord
gases all WNL)• Low incidence of FHR abnormalities (no
intervention)

• Multicenter RCT (15 centers) – 1414 women• Pain relief during labor between 32 and 42 weeks• Women randomized to receive epidural analgesia according to
local protocol or remifentanil PCA according to study protocol• Lower satisfaction scores, higher pain scores with remifentanil• 13% conversion remifentanil to epidural• Oxygen saturation lower in remifentanil group• Maternal and neonatal outcomes were comparable

Evidence based recommendations: • Remifentanil provides modest labor analgesia
(Class IIb, Level B)
• Remifentanil provides more effective analgesia
than nitrous oxide (Class IIa, Level B)
• Neuraxial analgesia provides significantly more
effective labor analgesia than remifentanil PCIA (Class I, A)
Van de Velde et al. Int J Obstet Anesth 2016; 25: 66-74.
Evidence based recommendations:
• Remifentanil has less effect on the fetus than othe r
parenteral opioids (Class IIb, Level B).
• Remifentanil increases risk of significant respir atory
depression compared to neuraxial analgesia (Class I; Level A)
