Post-partum Perineal Pain - Chirocaine® (EPISIO)

September 14, 2016 updated by: Hopital Foch

Contribution of the Local Infiltration of Chirocaine® in the Management of the Post-partum Perineal Pain After Episiotomy or First-degree Tear

The aim of this placebo-controlled clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of the local infiltration of the analgesic Chirocaïne® on perineal pain after episiotomy or first-degree tear. The pain intensity is measured in immediate postpartum period by using a numerical rating scale (NRS) at the following times: H2, H4, H8, H12, H24, H36, H48 during rest, defecation and during activities. The safety of Chirocaïne® and the patient satisfaction are also evaluated at each time.
