Abstract

Introduction
The objective of this case series was to present the importance of labour analgesia and the preference for erector spinae plane (ESP) block as a new technique that can be used for labour analgesia.

Case reports
The three patients were 25-year-old primipara with 5-cm cervical dilation, a 30-year-old multiparous with 5-cm cervical dilatation, and a 32-year-old primipara with 4-cm cervical dilation.

Conclusions
Bilateral ESP block may be an alternative analgesic technique for the first stage of labour.

Keywords

Labor pain,  Analgesia,  Obstetrical,  Nerve block

Resumo

Introdução: O objetivo desta série de casos foi apresentar a importância da analgesia de parto e a preferência pelo bloqueio do plano eretor da espinha (PES) como uma nova técnica que pode ser utilizada para analgesia de parto. Relatos de caso: As três pacientes eram primíparas de 25 anos com dilatação cervical de 5 cm, multípara de 30 anos com dilatação cervical de 5 cm e primípara de 32 anos com dilatação cervical de 4 cm. Conclusões: O bloqueio do PES bilateral pode ser uma técnica analgésica alternativa para o primeiro estágio do trabalho de parto.
