The investigators hypothesize that the position patients are in during spinal placement might play a role in the severity of maternal hypotension. Interestingly, very few studies have investigated this posibility. Gori, et al. (1) studied influence of seated versus lateral positioning for spinal placement in Cesarean section. They found no significant differences in onset times, Bromage score for motor block, recovery dynamics, and use of ephedrine in two different positions; however, they did not compare the incidence and severity of spinal hypotension. Yun, et al. (2) found that the severity and duration of hypotension were greater when hyperbaric bupivacaine and fentanyl were induced in the sitting position compared to lateral.
