Anesthetic and Obstetric Outcomes in Morbidly Obese Pregnant Patients Undergoing Cesarean Delivery: Retrospective Analysis of a Single Center Experience
Given that morbid obesity has been strongly associated with obstetric, neonatal and
anesthetic complications, and that scarce reports have evaluated anesthetic and obstetric
outcomes after cesarean delivery in morbidly obese patients; This study retrospectively
analyzed anesthetic, obstetric and neonatal outcomes in morbidly obese pregnant patients who
underwent cesarean delivery at Augusta University Medical Center, during a 2-year period
(2015-2016).

analyzed anesthetic, obstetric and neonatal outcomes in morbidly obese pregnant patients who
underwent cesarean delivery at Augusta University Medical Center, during a 2-year period
(2015-2016).
This study compared non-obese, obese and morbidly obese patients with respect to maternal,
perinatal and anesthetic outcomes. Obstetric aspects included emergent procedure, estimated
blood loss, obstetric complications, maternal disposition, length of stay and in-hospital
mortality. Neonatal aspects included Apgar scores. Anesthetic aspects included anesthetic
technique, intraoperative hemodynamic instability, failed regional anesthesia and anesthetic
complications.
