• Age: 18 Years – 48 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The cerebral oxygen saturation is assessed by means of near-infrared spectometry in parturients undergoing cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. The investigators hypothesis was that spinal anesthesia does not influence cerebral oxygen saturation.
