Vaginal Delivery under Epidural Analgesia at Sriram Hospitals

Childbirth is a beautiful experience, but it can also bring significant pain and anxiety. Epidural analgesia is one of the most effective and safe pain relief methods during normal vaginal delivery, allowing mothers to stay comfortable, relaxed, and fully conscious while bringing their baby into the world.

At Sriram Hospitals, we offer vaginal delivery with epidural analgesia, combining advanced obstetric care with modern pain management techniques to ensure a positive birthing experience.

What is Epidural Analgesia?

Epidural analgesia is a type of pain relief administered during labor. A small catheter is placed in the lower back (epidural space), through which anesthetic medicine is given. This blocks pain signals from reaching the brain while allowing the mother to remain awake, alert, and actively participate in the delivery.

How the Procedure is Done

An anesthetist gently places a catheter in the lower back after numbing the area.
The medicine is delivered through the catheter to provide continuous pain relief.
The mother can still feel contractions and pressure but without severe pain.
Throughout labor, the mother and baby are closely monitored by our medical team.
