Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study Clinical TrialPain relief during and following outpatient curettage and hysterosalpingography: a double blind study to compare the efficacy and safety of tramadol versus naproxen. Cobra Research Group.
To compare the analgetic efficacy and side-effects of Naproxen and Tramadol following the outpatient VABRA aspiration or hysterosalpingography. ⋯ Tramadol is a good alternative for Naproxen at outpatient VABRA or HSG procedures when Naproxen is contra-indicated.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialLabor pain relief using bupivacaine and sufentanil: patient controlled epidural analgesia versus intermittent injections.
To determine whether the use of patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) versus intermittent injections (CIT) resulted in local anesthetic dose reduction. ⋯ Patient-controlled epidural analgesia is an effective, safe and acceptable alternative to conventional intermittent epidural injections for pain relief during labor and delivery.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialAbu Dhabi third stage trial: oxytocin versus Syntometrine in the active management of the third stage of labour.
To compare the effect of oxytocin and Syntometrine when used as part of active management of third stage of labour on postpartum haemorrhage, hypertension, nausea/vomiting and retained placenta. ⋯ Prophylactic administration of oxytocin 10 U in the third stage of labour, as part of active management, reduces the incidence of maternal nausea, vomiting, headache and rise in blood pressure than does Syntometrine 1 ml without adversely affecting the rate of post partum haemorrhage.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialTramadol in labour pain in primiparous patients. A prospective comparative clinical trial.
The analgesic efficacy and safety of tramadol 50 mg, 100 mg and pethidine 75 mg, administered intramuscularly were compared in a randomized, double-blind clinical trial in 90 pregnant women with labour pain. Pain relief was measured by a 4-point verbal rating scale 10, 20, 30, 45 and 60 min after the administration of study drugs. ⋯ In comparison to both tramadol doses the administration of pethidine was associated with a significantly higher frequency of adverse events and a significantly lower respiratory rate in the neonates. The results indicate that tramadol 100 mg is as effective as pethidine 75 mg but has a superior safety profile.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialManagement of the third stage of labour in women at low risk of postpartum haemorrhage.
To compare active management with physiological management of the third stage of labour in women at low risk of postpartum haemorrhage. ⋯ This preliminary study confirms that active management results in a reduction in the length of the third stage of labour. However, it suggests that active management does not reduce blood loss when compared to physiological management in the woman at low risk of postpartum haemorrhage.
