    AbstractAnesthesia for cesarean section should ideally provide adequate muscle relaxation, analgesia, and narcosis or sedation for optimal operating conditions and safety to the dam. Since drugs that depress the dam must cross the blood-brain barrier, however, it is impossible to anesthetize the dam and not expose the fetuses to the anesthetic. No one agent or protocol is ideal for all dams, and satisfactory anesthesia for cesarean section can be induced in a number of ways. Cesarean section can be performed with either regional or general anesthesia.
