CBS News features ASA's statement on pain during cesarean delivery
In the segment, Mark Zakowski, M.D., FASA, chair of ASA’s Committee on Obstetric Anesthesia, was quoted regarding the statement, developed by ASA’s Committee on Obstetric Anesthesia, which offers health care teams recommendations to help ensure all moms-to-be receive adequate pain management, since 15% of women who undergo a C-section experience pain. “This is a problem, and we want to help to make that number go to zero,” Dr. Zakowski told CBS.
