Brief Summary

Patient controlled remifentanil analgesia might offer comparative overall patient satisfaction and improved quality of analgesia after normal labour with continuous epidural analgesia.

Detailed Description

We are aiming to study the effects of patient controlled remifentanil analgesia and epidural analgesia for normal labour in full term parturients on:

* Peripartum analgesia

* Overall patient's satisfaction

* Maternal adverse effects

* Neonatal outcomes
