Overview

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the communication between the anesthesiologist and the patient prior the initiation and during the administration of the labor neuraxial analgesia.

The investigators hypothesize that there will be differences among anesthesiologists during the informed consent process and communication during the procedure, specifically, how the anesthesiologists describe the technical aspects of the procedure, alternatives, risks, complications, and expected effects of labour neuraxial analgesia.

The anesthesiologists will be observed during a routine labor neuraxial analgesia procedure for healthy uncomplicated patients.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • all obstetric anesthesiologists working in maternity unit

Exclusion Criteria:

  • any comorbidity of the patient that would necessitate deviation from a routine practice for the initiation of labor neuraxial analgesia
