Introduction: Peridural anesthesia for labor, despite its detractors every day has more and more followers. Its repercussion on neonate is one of the controversial points. Objectives: To assess in newborn the repercussion of analgesia on neurologic function during labor and its possible relation with the way to finish it. Material and Methods: We made a prospective study in three groups of 25 neonates. Mothers had continuous lumbar peridural analgesia (group A) or intermittent (group B). We used a combination of Bupivacain and Fentanyl. In the third group mothers hadn't analgesic treatment. In each neonate we carried out a neurologic behavior assessment of Amiel-Tisson. Results: Neurologic behavior state of newborns was satisfactory. There were differences among the three groups. Birth instrumentation by epidural analgesia not affected t he neurologic assessment of neonates. Conclusions: Peridural analgesia for labor has not a negative repercussion on newborn.
