Studies have shown that the ideal dose of epidural dexmedetomidine is 0.4 μg mL-1 for epidural labor analgesia. However, the appropriate dose of ropivacaine when combined with 0.4 μg mL-1 of dexmedetomidine for epidural labor analgesia is still unknown. Therefore, we aimed to determine the dose-response of ropivacaine when using 0.4 μg mL-1 of dexmedetomidine as epidural adjuvant for labor analgesia.
