Abstract: Objective: The utilization of spinal anesthesia (SA) or epidural anesthesia (EA) carried out in the conduction of cesarean section under regional anesthesia. The pregnant females who faced caesarean section of delivery in our institute retroactively assessed to confirm & give a comparison of virtues and disadvantages of SA & EA for the determination of most proper method. Methodology: Pregnant females fulfilling the system of classification for physical condition of ASA (American society of anesthesiologists) 1 or 2 who faced cesarean surgery at our institute surveyed retroactively. One hundred patients in each group receiving SA & EA were the part of this research work. The duration from anesthesia to surgical opening known as time for A to S, total time of anesthesia, and utilization of vasopressor & midazolam compared in accordance with the approach of anesthesia. Results: The time of anesthesia to surgical incision & total duration of anesthesia of pregnant females who underwent SA were very short in comparison with the group of pregnant females who underwent EA and utilization of vasopressor was very common in the group of SA because of high decline in their blood pressure. Conclusion: The anesthesia to surgical incision time & total duration of anesthesia were high for EA than for SA. But, hemodynamic alteration was less & vasopressor was hardly in use for the former pregnant females group. So, the selection of the clinical method will rely on medical, anesthetic & obstetric condition.
