  • Title: [Anesthesia in cesarean section].
    Author: Siegismund K, Beutner M.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1985; 107(9):550-6. PubMed ID: 4013552.
    Abstract:
    667 cases inclusively 27 twin-births are evaluated in a retrospective study on the anesthesias administered in cesarean section (CS) from 1975 to 1983. The applied induction anesthetics hexobarbital, ketamine (Ketanest), propanidid (Sombrevin), etomidate (Radenarcon) and epidural anesthesia with bupivacaine (Marcaine) have been compared with each other concerning the Apgar scores of the newborns. Significant more depressed newborns have been found both in the hexobarbital group and to a low degree in the ketamine group. This tendency is also preserved when only the primary CS are taken into consideration. Besides the indications for the single anesthetics and methods of anesthesia, respectively, reference is made to the positioning of the mother and the avoidance of aspiration in the introduction of the anesthesia.
