Why the study?
The prevalence of maternal obesity is increasing globally and locally, complicating anesthesia management for pregnant women.
What are the clinical implications of morbid obesity during pregnancy on anesthesia management?
What are the clinical implications of morbid obesity during pregnancy on anesthesia management?
Morbid obesity in pregnancy complicates anesthesia management, requiring specific airway strategies like apneic oxygenation and ramped positioning, along with opioid-sparing analgesia.
Supports individualized anesthetic planning in obese pregnancies; leaves open standardized protocols pending higher-level evidence.
