Could a simple temperature change make epidurals safer?

NCT ID NCT06682416

Summary

This study is testing whether the temperature of the numbing medicine used in epidurals affects how often mothers get a fever during labor. Researchers are comparing a warm solution (37°C) to a room-temperature one (23°C) in 424 women receiving epidurals. The goal is to see if warming the medicine can reduce fever rates and improve outcomes for both mother and newborn.
