Incidence, Associated Factors, and Management of Inadequate Analgesia During Cesarean Section Under Spinal Anesthesia in the Maternity Wards of the Strasbourg University Hospital: a 2-year Retrospective Study

Inadequate analgesia during cesarean section is a common condition, notably addressed by national recommendations from the SFAR (French Society of Anesthesia and Intensive Care) in 2021.

The objective of this study is to identify the specific characteristics of this condition in Strasbourg in terms of risk factors and management, and then to propose a protocol for its prevention and management.
