Women's perspectives of nitrous oxide for labour and procedural analgesia : A prospective clinical audit and cross-sectional study. "It's the best thing"
Copyright © 2023 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.. All rights reserved..
PROBLEM: There is limited data regarding dose and duration of nitrous oxide use by women in peripartum care. Experiences of using nitrous in Australian settings have not previously been explored BACKGROUND: More than 1:2 women use nitrous oxide analgesia during labour and birth, despite this, there are limited published data on nitrous oxide use for labour or procedural analgesia in Australia.
AIM: To explore the use of nitrous oxide during labour and birth or procedural care.
METHODS: A two-phased sequential design was used; clinical audit (n = 183) and cross-sectional survey (n = 137) approaches supported data collection. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics, qualitative data underwent content analysis.
FINDINGS: Nitrous oxide was used by primiparous and multiparous women evenly. Duration of labour-use ranged from < 15 min (10.9%) to > 5 h (10.8%), with equal representation between > 50% concentration (43%) and < 50% (43%). At audit, 75% found nitrous useful; postpartum maternal satisfaction scores remained high, mean indicators were 75%. More multiparous women found nitrous oxide useful than primiparous (95%vs80%,p = 0.009). There was no association between perceived usefulness and whether women were in spontaneous, augmented or induced labour; regardless of concentrations reached. Three key themes described women's perspectives of physical and psycho-emotional effects and challenges.
DISCUSSION: Nitrous oxide plays an important role in the provision of analgesia during procedural or labour and birth care. Service provision, parent and professional education, and future service design will benefit from these novel findings confirming the utility and acceptability of nitrous oxide use in contemporary maternity care.
