About this study

In a PIEB, the concentration of local anesthetics administered is standardized in the services according to the recommendations. What is left to the judgement of the clinician, taking care of the patient during the work, is the administered dose. This often varies according to clinician deductions that take notice of height, weight, previous pregnancies In the CHU of Rennes, three dosages are used in common practice. The objective by comparing these three dosages is to show if there is a significant difference between the groups.
