Protocol summary

This randomized clinical trial was done in 2011 at Shohada Tajrish hospital, Tehran, Iran. 46 primiparous women, with normal pregnancy after 37 weeks who refer for normal vaginal delivery with episiotomy, were selected and randomly assigned to either EMLA or lidocaine group. Three patients in EMLA group were excluded later because of emergency delivery or use of forceps. In EMLA group, 5 gr of cream was applied to the medio-lateral site of episiotomy one hour prior to the estimated delivery time at cervix dilatation of 9 cm and it cleaned just before delivery. No other material was used as anesthetics in this group. In addition, 5 gr of EMLA cream was used for repairing of episiotomy after delivery. In lidocaine group, 5 cc of lidocaine 2% were used for doing and later for repairing episiotomy. Demographic data, delivery characteristics, neonatal weight, repair duration, need to more anesthetics, pain during repair based on visual analog scale (VAS) and satisfaction from repair process were recorded and were compared between two groups.
