Abstract
Purpose of review: Our goal in this review is to describe the current context and peculiarities of obstetric anaesthesia in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) and the ongoing actions and perspectives in terms of teaching and learning, focusing on improving maternal outcomes.
Recent findings: Correct identification of barriers and lack of infrastructures and anaesthesia providers are still major problems despite efforts of different stakeholders. International consensus and commitment for 2030 goals are trying to be achieved.
Summary: Structured training courses look a good option as short- and long-term evaluations show a positive impact. Future efforts will have to be also focused on indicators that may help to decrease the high mortality and morbidity ratios in LMIC.
期刊介绍：
This journal aims to offer expert review articles on the most significant recent developments in the field of anesthesiology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions, the journal intends to serve those involved in the delivery of anesthesia for surgical and medical procedures, treatment of acute and chronic pain conditions, perioperative management for operative and intensive care unit patients, and associated basic science and clinical research efforts in their areas. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the field. Section Editors select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An Editorial Board of more than 20 internationally diverse members reviews the annual table of contents, ensures that topics include emerging research, and suggests topics of special importance to their country/region. Topics covered may include ambulatory anesthesia; anesthesia and inflammation; anesthetic mechanisms; anesthetic pharmacology; cardiovascular anesthesia; critical care anesthesia; local anesthetic pharmacology; monitoring technology; neuroanesthesia; neuromuscular blockade; obstetrical anesthesia; pain mechanisms; pain therapy; patient safety; pediatric anesthesia; quality assessment; regional anesthesia; and transplantation anesthesia.
