The local anesthetic, which dose will be adjusted according to height and weight, and 20 µg fentanyl will administered intrathecally to both groups. Results on the effectiveness of spinal anesthesia will monitored.

Results The data of 100 parturients will investigated. The onset time of sensory and motor block, the duration of motor and sensory block, APGAR and VAS scores will be monitored. In addition, C/S indications, side effects, patient satisfaction, additional medication need and, spinal anesthesia preferences will be monitored.

Conclusions Smoking affects many systems. According to the onset of sensory block, duration of sensory and motor block and, VAS scores, which determine the effectiveness of spinal anesthesia, it will be evaluated whether smoking also affects spinal anesthesia in pregnant women.
