ABSTRACT:
Objectives: To know the effects of Pipecuronium Bromide used as general anaesthesia during caesarian section on neonates, if any? Material and Methods: Eighty five mothers who have undergone Caesarian Section were included in the study (sixty five in study and twenty in control group). Statistical analysis: Chi-square tests, Proportion etc. were used for statistical analysis. Results: 85% had an average apgar score of 9.19 and 9.92 at 1 minute and 5 minutes interval. Only 15% had an average Apgar score of 5.77 to 8.0. Preoperative foetal distress and prematurity were the two factors leading to a poor scoring.
