Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Patients presenting for normal spontaneous vaginal delivery who have a neuraxial anesthestic will be randomized to receive preservative free morphine or saline placebo after delivery.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

After obtaining consent, women presenting to the labor floor at Mount Sinai Hospital will be randomized into two groups, intervention and placebo. Baseline demographic data and surveys in regards to postpartum depression, anxiety, breastfeed willingness and pain scores will be obtained. After delivery of the baby patients will either receive 2mg preservative free morphine or saline via the epidural catheter prior to its removal. The study team will then record pain and recovery scores, as well as follow up screens to the aforementioned endpoints. The study will end at the 6 week postpartum visit with the patient's obstetrician.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Opioid Consumption [24 hours]

      Quantity of opioid used in 24 hours

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Pain Score [up to 24 hours]

      Pain Score: Likert full scale 1-10, with higher score indicating more pain

    2. Obstetric Quality of Recovery Score (OBSQ10) [24 hours]

      OBSQ10 total score 0-100, with higher score indicating better health status

    3. Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) [up to 6 weeks]

      The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is a 10-item instrument to assess postpartum depression, with total score from 0-30. Higher score indicates more depressed symptoms.

    4. Number of participants with breast feeding success [1 week]

      Participants will respond yes/no as to their breast feeding success and continuation
