Epidural regional anesthesia provides the safest method of pain relief for clients with heart
disease. If the client expends more energy than her heart can tolerate, especially during second
stage labor, cardiac decompensation may occur. Unless an emergency cesarean birth is needed,
spinal anesthesia is unnecessary for clients with class I heart disease who are not experiencing
problems. General anesthesia is not indicated for a vaginal birth for a client with class I heart
disease. Local perineal anesthesia is used when an episiotomy is to be performed and the client
has not had anesthesia during labor.
