Spinal Anesthesia for Cesarean Delivery is Associated With Decreases in Regional Cerebral Oxygen Saturation as Assessed by Near- Infrared Spectroscopy

Cerebral Oxygen Saturation During Spinal Anesthesia for Cesarean Delivery Clinical Trial

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The cerebral oxygen saturation is assessed by means of near-infrared spectometry in parturients undergoing cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. The investigators hypothesis was that spinal anesthesia does not influence cerebral oxygen saturation.
