Abstract
A series of 250 cases undergoing Cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were presented and analyzed from the clinical points of view.
Hypotension down to 80 mmHg or less occured in 43.6% of all cases following spinal anesthesia, and the incidence of hypotension was closely related to the level of sensory analgesia (initial level) .
Hypotension could be mostly restored by changing the position from supine to lateral, but the effects of vasopressor was not uniform.
It was seen that the amount of rapid intravenous infusion was influenced by the duration and degree of hypotension.
Associated with anesthesia, Apgar' Score was indicateed 7 to 10 points in 96% of all cases.
Administration of Droperidol, Diazepam and Pentazocine were effectively choiced for any visceral pain after birth and any emesis.
