Abstract

The danger of maternal complications during local and conduction anaesthesia during delivery is important for the indication for the choice of the method and for informed consent from the patient prior to delivery. Data on maternal complications since 1960 in the use of the pudendal block, the paracervical block, spinal anaesthesia for vaginal deliveries and Caesarean sections, single shot lumbar epidural anaesthesia and continous catheter lumbar epidural anaesthesias and caudal anaesthesias are presented. The respective anaesthetic risk apparent from this data are discussed.
