Key result
General anesthesia shows no difference vs regional anesthesia for neonatal death during C-sections for hypertensive pregnancies.
Why the study?
Does general anesthesia compared to regional anesthesia affect maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy undergoing cesarean section?
Observational (n=848)
No
Does general anesthesia compared to regional anesthesia affect maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy undergoing cesarean section?
Anesthetic method (general vs. regional) does not significantly affect maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy undergoing cesarean section.
No outcome differences by anesthesia type; leaves open need for randomized trials before guiding practice.

Lee et al. (2014) conducted an observational in Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (n=848). General anesthesia vs. Regional anesthesia was evaluated on Neonatal death (p=0.393). General anesthesia compared to regional anesthesia resulted in no significant differences in neonatal death (2.23% vs 1.72%) or other maternal and neonatal outcomes during cesarean sections for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
