Brief Summary:
To estimate the dose of bupivacaine required to achieve initial effective comfort in 90% of patients (ED90) via the epidural (DPE or EPL) technique in women undergoing labor after receiving a lidocaine "test dose"
Detailed Description:
The primary objective of our study is to use a biased coin up-down allocation methodology to estimate the dose of bupivacaine required to achieve initial effective comfort in 90% of patients (ED90) via the epidural (DPE or EPL) technique in women undergoing labor induction or augmentation; we hypothesize that we will be able to determine the ED90 of bupivacaine for each technique with adequate precision to inform the optimal doses. We will be conducting this study in women who receive a prior lidocaine "test dose" used in standard clinical practice
