  • nulliparous
  • _ one fetus
  • head first
  • spontaneous labor
  • epidural analgesia
  • no fetal cardiac rhythm abnormalies before the epidural analgesia
  • no active management of labor during 30 minutes after the epidural analgesia induction
  • signature of the consent form

Exclusion Criteria

  • pathological pregnancy

  • uterin contraction which last for 5 minutes or more
  • more than 6 uterin contractions during a 10 minutes period
  • Ropivacaine contraindication

Arms & Interventions

fetal cardiac rhythm abnormally

patient at term, in spontanous labor with fetal cardiac rythm abnormally which occurs 30 minutes after the epidural analgesia induction

Intervention: ropivacaine

control group

patient at term, spontaneous labor, without any fetal cardiac rhythm abnormalies during the 30 minutes after the epidural analgesia induction

Intervention: ropivacaine

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Plasmatic concentrations compared maternal ropivacaine based on the presence of abnormal fetal heart rate

Time Frame: 1 day

Maternal Plasmatic concentrations of ropivacaine will be measured in mg / liter of maternal blood and the median of each group will be compared by paired Wilcoxon test

Secondary Outcomes

  • Plasmatic concentrations compared maternal sufentanil based on the presence of abnormal fetal heart rate(1 day)
