Anesthetic practice for Caesarean section and factors influencing anesthesiologists' choice of anesthesia: a population‐based study

Abstract: Spinal anesthesia was the most common mode of anesthesia for CS deliveries in Taiwan during the past decade. Early or threatened labor, antepartum hemorrhage, emergency CS, previous CS, and preeclampsia are significant determinants of general anesthesia in CS deliveries.

“…She was not actively bleeding, and only moderate variability in FHR was detected without deceleration, so we had ample time to perform the CSE. Although the decision-to-deliver interval for general anesthesia (GA) is faster than that for RA [ 6 ], RA is preferred to GA because it is safer and causes less maternal and neonatal morbidity than those of GA [ 6 7 ]. The other consideration in this case was spread of the infection.…”

“…An increasing trend in utilization of PNBs has also been suggested in previous reports. [11][12][13] Our data demonstrate significant differences in the use of NA and PNBs by race, as the black population showed the lowest rate of utilization compared with all other groups. Moreover, overall differences in the distribution of regional anesthetic techniques among populations have been reported from the National Anesthesia Clinical Outcomes Registry data of the Anesthesia Quality Institute.…”
