Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Epidural space is a space which is present between the dura mater and ligament wall of the spinal cord. Epidural analgesia refers to a technique which infuses the opioid and local anaesthesia to the patient.

The Epidural anaesthesia is used during the labour to lessen the pain.

The data that must be collected before giving the epidural anaesthesia are:

1. Monitoring the blood pressure as it changes after the infusion of the anaesthesia.

2. Monitor the arousal level.

3. Monitor the respiratory rate and death rate.

and the pulse rate.

These should also be monitored after providing epidural anaesthesia.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
