The Effect of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for Cesarean Section on Neonatal Blood Glucose

Description

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a set of evidence-based guidelines that may be used during perioperative care for cesarean section. While there is good evidence that following ERAS protocols benefits postoperative recovery, less is understood about the effect on the fetus and neonate. This will be a randomized equivalence trial to determine if drinking a carbohydrate rich drink prior to cesarean section has an effect on neonatal glucose.
