The labor and delivery unit is a unique environment where anesthesiologists interact and collaborate with multiple professional groups to provide care for parturients and their fetuses; the delivery process is also a dramatic and unique experience for women, which can result in significant pain, morbidity and mortality. The focus of this thesis is to determine strategies to optimize existing processes and techniques to enhance the analgesia, quality and safety of maternal fetal care during labor and delivery.
