  • Title: Fetal circulation during epidural analgesia for caesarean section.
    Author: Lindblad A, Marsál K, Vernersson E, Renck H.
    Journal: Br Med J (Clin Res Ed); 1984 May 05; 288(6427):1329-30. PubMed ID: 6424844.
    Abstract:
    Fetal blood flow was examined during epidural analgesia in six women with uncomplicated pregnancies undergoing elective caesarean section. A non-invasive, ultrasonic technique was used to measure blood flow in the fetal descending aorta and intra-abdominal part of the umbilical vein before induction of analgesia with etidocaine and bupivacaine and 15 and 30 minutes afterwards. No appreciable change in fetal blood flow was observed.
