A member asked:
Do i need a predelivery consult with an anesthesiologist?

No: One does not need a consult, but it is helpful, from the view point of an anesthesiologist, to be aware of potential problems; for example, a patient who has experienced difficulty with intubation. It smooths out the process.

Good idea: It is a good idea to discuss an anesthesia plan in advance.
