Pain-free childbirth, also known as labor analgesia, is an advanced obstetric technique that provides pain management for mothers during labor through professional medical methods. It significantly alleviates the sensation of pain during delivery, making the childbirth process more comfortable and calm.
This technique usually employs regional anesthesia or analgesic medications, such as epidural anesthesia, to precisely control the drug dosage. This ensures the mother remains conscious and mobile during labor while effectively reducing the physical and psychological stress caused by labor pain.
Pain-free childbirth not only enhances the mother's birthing experience and reduces complications that may arise from pain, but also promotes the success rate of spontaneous vaginal delivery.
