Summary

Impedance Cardiography (ICG) is a non-invasive tool for continuous hemodynamic monitoring. Aims of our study is to assess the utility of ICG to evaluate the hemodynamic impact of 6 mg (GL6) vs 8 mg (GL8) levobupivacaine combined with fentanyl in healthy patients undergoing elective cesarean section; secondary, to compare the duration and quality of analgesia and anesthesia
