Sodium, chloride, and water reabsorption capacity increases by high-level progesterone during this period. When there is a change in water and sodium reabsorption which may in term affect the functioning of the auditory system especially peripheral auditory system. Otoacoustic emissions (OAE’s) arise from outer hair cells (OHC’s) which is situated on the basilar membrane that is seen inside the inner ear. The changes in the hormonal levels during the menstrual cycle has a clinically less significant effect on the suppression of TEOAE’s, one of the type of OAE. The current study targeted the testing during three different phases of the menstrual cycle (Day 1 to Day 28) - Follicular phase, Ovulation phase and Luteal phase. The amount of suppression (3dB) caused during different phases of the menstrual cycle for each individual frequencies was compared and analyzed. The study shows that TEOAE, CSTEOAE’s and suppression did not exhibit any statistically significant differences at all the frequencies between the different phases of the menstrual cycle. There are no significant correlation findings between menstrual cycle and outer hair cell function, and menstrual cycle and efferent auditory pathway functioning, considering the complaints of hearing and balance problem during the menstrual cycle period by.","PeriodicalId":404560,"journal":{"name":"Southeast Asian Journal of Health Professional","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130505013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are several other pharmacological and non pharmacological methods available for providing labour analgesia. Local anaesthetic is an indispensable drug for administering epidural labour analgesia Ropivacaine is the most widely used local anaesthetic for labour analgesia because of its safety profile proven by various studies.It is less potent and onset of action is slightly prolonged when compared to bupivacaine or levobupivacaine. Use of adjuvants along with local anaesthetic reduces the total dose of local anaesthetic that is required for providing effective labour analgesia. Clonidine is a centrally acting partial alpha 2 adrenergic agonist that reduces the anaesthetic and analgesic requirement of local anaesthetic. This study is aimed to study the effect of ropivacaine with clonidine as an adjuvant for labour analgesia.To compare the time of onset of analgesia, total dose of local anaesthetic required, total duration of analgesia and neonatal outcome between the two groups, Group I with ropivacaine and Group II ropivacaine with clonidine.: A prospective randomised controlled study was conducted in a government peripheral medical College after getting ethical committee clearance 100 patrurients randomised into two groups, Group I received 2% ropivacaine and Group II received 2% ropivacaine with 40 micrograms of clonidine.: The results were analysed with SPSSVersion 13 using student t - test and chi square test The mean age was 23.4 ±1.7 years.
