A prospective, observer blinded comparative study was done on 60 nulliparous women  at >37 weeks of gestation and 18–35 years age  group, requested for  epidural labor analgesia, In Group BSSufentanil 12.5 mcg (0.25 ml) + 2.5 ml Bupivacaine (0.5%) + 7.25 ml  normal saline  was given and inGroup BF Fentanyl 25mcg (0.5 ml) + 2.5 ml Bupivacaine (0.5%) + 7 ml normal saline given.It was observed that epidural Fentanyl and Sufentanil with low dosage of Bupivacaine improved the quality of analgesia in regarding their onset and duration, in early labour in both the groups. There were no significant adverse effects like maternal hypotension, sedation, respiratory depression, nausea/ vomiting, pruritus, shivering in both the groups. Instrumental delivery did not increase and maternal satisfaction was excellent. Neonatal Apgar score in one and five minutes in both the groups was also 9–10.
