[Emergency indications for cesarean section]. 1986

H Wagner

It must be kept in mind that there are few situations that demand immediate surgery. Regarding indications for most caesarean sections, there is enough time for the anaesthesist to administer speedy, but nevertheless orderly premedication and judge the indications for anaesthesia. The anaesthetic technique should be determined in agreement with the obstetrician. In most hospitals, general anaesthesia can probably be performed more quickly than intrathecal or extrathecal anaesthetics. However, this article will not deal with the details involved in these methods.
