Authors' recommendations:
There is insufficient evidence to draw firm conclusions on the safety and efficacy of IV fentanyl versus other analgesics used on uncomplicated labour and delivery. There was no evidence on fetal monitoring during labour in women who received IV fentanyl, and evidence-based clinical practice guidelines on the use of IV fentanyl during uncomplicated labour were not found.
