Yurashevich M, et al. - Researchers investigated the factors related to < 100% satisfaction with obstetric anaesthesia care. They found that pain intensity during the first stage of labour; pain intensity during the second stage of labour; postpartum pain intensity; delay > 15 min in providing epidural analgesia and postpartum headache were the factors that showed a strong link to maternal dissatisfaction post-vaginal delivery. Pruritus was also identified as a contributor to dissatisfaction following vaginal delivery, whereas a negative relation of non-Hispanic ethnicity with dissatisfaction was also reported. A link was observed between dissatisfaction and intensity of postpartum pain, headache and pruritus, following caesarean delivery. Overall, the factors that were shown to be related to maternal dissatisfaction with obstetric anaesthesia care in this study were inadequate or delayed analgesia and treatment-related side-effects.
