What are the procedures done before a c section?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

C/S Process: In general, an IV is put in a vein and you are given fluids and an antibiotic. You drink an antacid; your pubic hair is shaved; the anesthesia provider injects some anesthetic in your spinal fluid; a foley catheter is placed in your bladder and pneumatic compression devices are placed on your legs. The surgeon confirms that you can't feel the surgery; a time-out is performed and surgery starts.
