Abstract
An increase in pregnant patients with comorbidities has been seen in the last
decade. Nevertheless, these patients are able to enjoy longer and better quality lives
nowadays. During pregnancy, patients can experience decompensations of their chronic
disease which can be sometimes challenging for the medical team. Complexity has
risen; that is why the anesthesiologist must be updated and capable of facing different
scenarios both in the delivery room and before or after birth.
This chapter offers a practical and synthetical approach to the most common situations
in which a general anesthesiologist can be involved, aiming to emphasize main points
for safe and accurate anesthetic care.
