Spinal anesthesia may be selected for faster onset in severe preeclampsia cesareans despite higher hypotension rates; extends RCT evidence supporting its safety with monitoring.
Does spinal anesthesia compared to epidural anesthesia reduce mean arterial blood pressure in severely preeclamptic patients undergoing cesarean delivery?
Spinal anesthesia is associated with more frequent but easily treatable hypotension compared to epidural anesthesia in severely preeclamptic women undergoing cesarean delivery, with similar neonatal outcomes.
