Abstract
Pre-labour EPTs were not very reliable at predicting the labour pain experience. Consistent with postoperative studies, suprathreshold and tolerance tests appear more useful than the threshold for predicting labour pain responses. Pain rating during i.v. cannulation (an easy, rapid, point-of-care test) showed some utility as an EPT.
