Article Abstract:

Labor pains may be addressed with epidurals without increasing the chances for the mother to have to undergo caesarean. This was gleaned from a recent study which discovered that caesarean rate did not rise along with epidural use. The finding also refutes previous research that found a significant link between caesarean and epidural use.
