Cesarean Section Anesthesia

Cesarean section anesthesia involves the use of medication to numb the lower body during a C-section, a surgery to deliver a baby. The most common types are spinal and epidural anesthesia, which block pain sensations while allowing the mother to remain awake and alert. This approach helps ensure the mother experiences minimal discomfort during the procedure, while also allowing her to bond with her newborn immediately after delivery. Anesthesia specialists monitor the mother’s vital signs throughout the surgery to ensure her safety and comfort.
