Collection and Usage Attributes
As of 1 July 2002, the name of this data element was approved to be changed from "Analgesia administered during labour" to "Analgesia administered during labour/delivery" - neither the definition nor the domain changed, therefore there was no change in the meaning of the data element and Version 2 of this data element was therefore created.
The use of analgesia may influence the duration of labour, may affect the health status of the baby at birth and is an indicator of obstetric intervention.
