Who can join

You may qualify if…

• Primigravidae with the full term undergoing vaginal delivery with episiotomy.
• Pregnancies and singleton vertex cephalic fetuses.
• In the active phase of the first stage of labor.

You may not qualify if…

• Patients with history of drug allergies to study drugs as this will increase the risk of complications.
• Patients undergoing vaginal delivery under epidural or spinal anesthesia as they will affect post-operative pain and interfere with assessment of efficacy of local infiltration of the study drugs.
• Evidence of local infection at site of injection as this will interfere with the action of the study drug and will increase the risk of complications.
• Inability to cooperate as this will affect our assessment.
• Patient's refusal.
• Any intraoperative complications that will affect our outcome criteria (bleeding, organ injury) as they will affect patient's vital data and affect our assessment.
• Neurological comorbidities (chronic pain disorder, chronic systemic disease, neurological disorder, neuropathic pain) as they will need more analgesia.
