![]() In nulliparous only studies, 2 found no difference between study groups, 1 found a lower breastfeeding rate in the neuraxial group and 3 studies showed mixed results. Overall, there were 6 studies that found no difference between groups, 6 studies that showed a significantly lower incidence of breastfeeding in the neuraxial group and 3 studies finding mixed results (at some time-points statistically significant and at some time-point statistically non-significant results). We included 15 studies (13 observational studies, 1 secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial, 1 case-control study) with 16,112 participants. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. We conducted an analysis excluding studies of serious and critical risk of bias. ![]() Where possible, nulliparous parturients were analyzed separately. Outcomes were the percentage of women breastfeeding fully or mixed with formula. We performed a literature search in various databases for studies comparing neuraxial analgesia to non-neuraxial or no analgesia. ![]() There have been numerous reports studying the effect of neuraxial analgesia on breastfeeding success, but the results are inconsistent. ![]()
