Brief summary
The study propose that the using the high-flow nasl oxygen to provide oxygen for maternal can improve the fetal acidemia and the neonatal outcomes during cesarean section with combined spinal-epidural anesthesia.
Detailed description
Maternal oxygen supplementation is widely used intrauterine resuscitation technique in clinical, which can improve fetal oxygenation and prevent fetal acidemia. The incidence of hypotension is high in cesarean section with combined spinal-epidural anesthesia. Hypotension contributes to insufficient perfusion of uterus and placenta, resulting in decreased fetal oxygen supply and neonatal acidemia. High flow nasal oxygen have a better improvement oxygenation of patients by providing high flow oxygen airflow with heating and humidification through nasal cannula.
Interventions
Using the Optiflow high-flow nasal cannula system to supply oxygen for maternal.
