To soberly assess the current need for dissection and its possible consequences, it is necessary to get acquainted with the way a cesarean section is done . But especially often there are difficulties with the choice of anesthesia in cesarean section, since not every mother is familiar with the nuances of her species and can not participate in the decision of doctors.
Types of anesthesia in cesarean section
Each planned or emergency cesarean section implies an individual approach of doctors to the situation and the choice of the most optimal variant of anesthesia. At the moment, in obstetric practice, three main types of anesthesia are used: general, epidural and dorsal.
The choice of an anesthesiologist is influenced by the availability of necessary drugs, the reaction of the female body to the administration of the medication, the condition of the child and the stage of childbirth.
