The optimal intrathecal dose of local anaesthetic for caesarean section (CS) anaesthesia is still being debated. We performed a study to compare the effectiveness and safety of spinal anaesthesia with 12.5 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine and a dosing re...

Spinal anesthesia is the best choice for caesarean delivery. This technique is characterized by a complete and predictable nerve block with a fast onset and few complications. Several intrathecal adjuvants are used in order to improve the quality and...

Background and Objectives: In the context of hip fracture surgeries, episodes of hypotension are common, and have been associated in various studies with increased complications and mortality. The latest clinical guidelines recommend close hemodynami...

Background: The aim of our study was to investigate the prevalence of perioperative hypotension after spinal anesthesia for cesarean section using non-invasive continuous hemodynamic monitoring and its correlation with neonatal well-being. Methods: W...

Background and Clinical significance: Single-shot spinal anesthesia for intrapartum Cesarean section has recently been incriminated in carrying a high risk of high neuraxial block (HNB) occurrence in parturients receiving labor epidural analgesia. Th...

Background: Spinal anesthesia is considered the method of choice for elective cesarean sections; however, it is not without maternal–fetal risks. Materials and Methods: This study compared the effects on maternal hemodynamics of intrathecal adm...

Norepinephrine has been recently introduced for prophylaxis against post-spinal hypotension during cesarean delivery; however, no data are available regarding its optimum dosing scheme. The primary objective of this study is to compare three differen...
