ABSTRACT
Newer modalities in labour analgesia and anaesthesia for caesarean section including regional anaesthesia techniques and airway management are emerging constantly. Techniques such as point of care ultrasound, especially of the lungs and stomach and point of care tests of coagulation based on viscoelastometry are about to revolutionise perioperative obstetric care. This has improved the quality of care thereby ensuring good perioperative outcomes in the parturient with comorbidities. Critical care for obstetrics is an emerging field that requires a multidisciplinary approach with obstetricians, maternal-foetal medicine experts, intensivists, neonatologists, and anaesthesiologists working together with enhanced preparedness and uniform protocols. Newer techniques and concepts of understanding have thus been established in the traditional speciality of obstetric anaesthesia over the last decade. These have improved maternal safety and neonatal outcomes. This article touches upon some recent advances that have made a significant impact in the field of obstetric anaesthesia and critical care.
