We describe a new approach to anaesthesia for elective Caesarean section in
a woman with Eisenmenger's syndrome. Incremental regional anaesthesia was
performed using a microspinal catheter and haemodynamic monitoring included
transthoracic bioimpedance cardiography. This approach allowed the disadva
ntages of general anaesthesia and invasive cardiac output monitoring to be
avoided.
