Introduction: Anesthesia for cesarean section in a patient with preeclampsia is far more complicated than an otherwise normal pregnancy for several reasons. Apart from the risks of high incidence of intrauterine growth restriction, fetal distress and prematurity, there are risk of increased perioperative morbidity due to altered hemodynamics
Material and methods: This study was conducted on 100 booked pregnant woman of ASA physical status I and II (Normotensive) or III (Preeclamptic), between 19 to 30 years of age, carrying a live, mature, healthy, single fetus posted for elective cesarean section. Patients were counseled during preoperative examination and 50 normotensive and 50 preeclamptic patients were recruited for this study after obtaining informed consent from each of the patient in their own language.
