Abstract

Pain management during labor and delivery is complex and must balance efficacy and toxicity to both the pregnant person and the fetus. There are numerous ways to achieve safe and effective analgesia and anesthesia during labor and delivery, including neuraxial and nonneuraxial techniques. This review describes important anesthetic considerations that should be made when formulating a pain management plan and an overview of common anesthesia-related complications encountered in the obstetric population.
