Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To compare the analgesic and side effects of intramuscular pethidine with intramuscular morphine in active phase of labor MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sixty nulliparous women were randomized to receive either 100 mg pethidine or 5 mg intramuscular morphine in active phase of labor. All participants received the antiemetic metochlopramide at the same time as the trial drugs. Maternal analgesia asssessed by a visual analog score and verbal scales of pain intensity and pain relief, maternal sedation and vomiting; neonatal outcome assessed by Apgar scores and the need for resuscitation. RESULTS: More women allocated to receiving pethidine than to diamorphine were found to have higher visual analog scores at the 30th and 60th minutes (p<0.01). Slight or no pain relief was reported more frequently in the pethidine compared to morphine group (53.3% versus 26.7%, p=0.03). There was no difference in maternal sedation, but the incidence of vomiting was lower for women who received morphine (p=0.04). Pethidine was associated with lower Apgar scores at 1 minute (p=0.04). CONCLUSION: Intramuscular morphine in labor appears to have some benefits, compared with pethidine. Further research is needed for the long-term effects of these drugs on the infants.

Özet

AMAÇ: Aktif doğum eyleminde intramusküler petidin ve morfin kullanımının maternal analjezi ve yan etkiler açısından karşılaştırılması GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Altmış nullipar gebe doğum eyleminin aktif fazında 100 mg petidin ya da 5 mg intramusküler morfin alacak şekilde randomize edildi. Çalışmaya katılan tüm olgulara deneme ilaçları ile eş-zamanlı antiemetik metoklopramid uygulandı. Maternal analjezi vizüel analog skor, ağrı şiddetinin ve azalmasının sözel skalası, maternal sedasyon ve kusma ile; yenidoğan sonuçları Apgar skorları ve resussitasyon gereksinimi ile değerlendirildi. BULGULAR: Petidin kullanılan olgularda morfin kullanılanlara göre ilaçların uygulanmasından sonraki 30. ve 60. dakikalarda vizüel analog skor daha yüksek saptandı (p<0.001). Ağrı giderme etkisinin yok ya da az olması petidin grubunda morfin grubuna göre daha yüksek sıklıkta saptandı (%53.3'e karşılık %26.7, p=0.03). Her iki grupta maternal sedasyon açısından fark yoktu, ancak morfin kullanılan olgularda kusmaya daha az rastlandı (p=0.04). Petidin kullanılan olgularda 1. Dakika düşük Apgar skoru sıklığı daha fazla bulundu (p=0.04). SONUÇ: Aktif doğum eyleminde intramuskuler morfin kullanımının yararları petidin ile karşılaştırıldığında daha fazla görünmektedir. Bebekler üzerindeki uzun-dönem etkileri için ileri araştırmaların yapılması gerekmektedir.
