Abstract

Introduction: Case series helps us to evaluate management and safety of spinal anesthesia for caesarean delivery in pregnant women with COVID-19 infection. Case Series: We hereby report the management of three COVID-19 positive pregnant women undergoing caesarean section in our hospital. Patients presented with mild symptoms of COVID 19. Routine investigations and COVID -19 markers were evaluated. Anesthesia and operation went uneventfully. Conclusion: Health care providers and babies were not infected with virus. Precautionary measures and strategies were of utmost importance to lower virus contagion risk. Spinal anesthesia was preferred over GA.
