Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo analyse the preoperative conditions and intraoperative anesthetic managements of parturients who underwent Caesarean section and explore possible relationship between perianesthetic managements and prognosis of parturients and fetuses.
METHODSA group of 30 parturients who underwent Caesarean sections under general anesthesia were analysed retrospectively.
RESULTSAll the 30 Caesarean sections were smooth in terms of both procedure and anesthesia.
CONCLUSIONSGeneral anesthesia is still indicated in Caesarean section, although multiple risks may still exist. Considerate perinatal planning, careful preoperative preparations, and delicate intraoperative managements positively contribute to the good prognosis of parturient and fetus.
