In 50 infants born to women who continued to take heroin during all or part of their pregnancy the drug withdrawal symptoms were mild and were noted in 21 infants (42%). Only nine infants required treatment. Sudden infant death syndrome occurred in two infants at 4 and 6 months.

Objective: To investigate the impact of dexmedetomidine-ropivacaine combination versus sufentanil-ropivacaine combination for epidural labour analgesia on neonatal and maternal outcomes and test the feasibility of a future large, randomised trial.
Design: A randomised, double-blind, pilot clinical trial from 16 March 2023 to 15 June 2023.
Setting: A tertiary-care hospital in Beijing, China.

Objectives: The rationale of adoption opioid-sparing anesthesia (OSA) is to achieve perioperative analgesia with a minimal amount of opioids combined with nonopioid adjuvants during and after surgery, namely multimodal anesthesia. The OSA approach was originally developed to overcome the known complications of opioid-based anesthesia (OA), and the present scoping review (ScR) aims at providing clinical evidence of the safety and efficacy of OSA with respect to OA.
Methods: This ScR is mainly focused on studies presenting evidence on the safety and efficacy of OSA versus OA.

Objective: There is a lack of research on epidural esketamine for labor analgesia. The purpose of this research is to compare the efficacy of epidural esketamine and sufentanil on labor analgesia and postpartum depression.
Methods: A total of 187 cephalic full-term parturients with single-fetus vaginal delivery were collected in this retrospective study from Jan 2022 to Jan 2023.

Epidural analgesia is considered the gold standard for labour pain but may not be an option for all parturients due to patient choice or medical contraindication. Non-neuraxial alternatives for labour analgesia have been extensively studied and include both pharmacological and non-pharmacological options. Pharmacological options include the use of opioids and inhalational agents while non-pharmacological options range from non-invasive methods such as continuous labour support to techniques such as sterile water injection.
