Neither anesthesia type alters cord blood endothelial markers in elective cesarean; supports equivalence of general and spinal anesthesia for fetal biomarkers.
Does general anesthesia compared to spinal anesthesia affect maternal and cord blood neopterin, sE-selectin, and sL-selectin levels in healthy parturients undergoing elective cesarean section?
General and spinal anesthesia techniques do not significantly differ in their effects on cord blood endothelial adhesion molecules during elective cesarean section.
