[Status of obstetrical anesthesia in Germany].
A study on actual trends in obstetric analgesia and anaesthesia was conducted on data received from 385 German departments of obstetrics with a total of 267441 deliveries. On the basis of these extensive data quantitative results could be obtained about analgesic procedures for spontaneous deliveries, operative-vaginal deliveries, Caesarean sections and in cases of foetal or maternal risks. The type of analgesics and local anaesthetics used, their side effects and complications were recorded. In addition the cooperation and interaction between obstetricians and anesthesiologists in practising and monitoring obstetrical analgesia and anaesthesia are described.
