Question 1 of 5
What is the recommended method of pain relief during labor for a woman with a high-risk pregnancy?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Epidural anesthesia. Epidural anesthesia is the recommended method for pain relief during labor for women with high-risk pregnancies as it provides effective pain relief while allowing the mother to remain conscious and able to actively participate in the birthing process. Epidurals can be adjusted to provide varying levels of pain relief and are considered safe for both the mother and the baby. Spinal anesthesia (
B) is typically used for cesarean sections and may not be suitable for the entire labor process. Intravenous opioids (
C) are less commonly used due to potential side effects on the baby.
Choice D is incorrect as not all methods are recommended for high-risk pregnancies.
