Résumé (français) :
Abstract (English) :	Neuraxial blockade is widely used for pain relief in labour. This form of analgesia may be associated with an increase in instrumental delivery rates due to dystocia. ’Traditional’ epidurals cause motor blockade and hence immobility. Using a low dose anaesthetic-opioid combination with either epidural or combined spinal-epidural, selective sensory blockade can be achieved, allowing mobility as well as pain relief. In this study, we randomised women with combined spinal-epidural analgesia either to mobilise (upright group n=25) or to remain recumbent (n=41) in the second stage of labour. We found women in the upright group had significantly shorter total second stage, (132 vs 109 min,P =0.019) particularly during the pushing phase (73 vs 51 min, P=0.011) Although there were fewer instrumental deliveries in the upright group, this was not statistically significant. Women who were randomised to the upright group, did actually mobilise. We conclude that mobilisation in the second stage of labour is possible, and may reduce the length of the second stage.
