Webinar topic: Intrapartum pudendal nerve block and childbirth experience in primiparous women

Pudendal nerve block analgesia (PNB) is used as pain relief in the final stage of childbirth. We hypothesized that PNB is associated with higher rates of postpartum urinary retention.

PNB is unlikely to hamper future bladder function, but might have important implications for mode of delivery.

The presentation and discussion will be in English.
