Local-regional anesthesia during childbirth: effect on newborn behaviors
Science (New York, N.Y.)
|November 15, 1974
Administration of local-regional anesthesia during norgnal deliveries was correlated significantly with newborn behaviors as evaluated by the Brazelton neonatal assessment scale. Three days after birth, infants whose mothers received local-regional anesthesia were more irritable and motorically less mature than those infants whose mothers were not medicated.
