Obstetric Anesthesiology Unit

The Obstetrics Anesthetization Unit at Shaare Zedek Medical Center serves all women coming to give birth at the hospital. An anesthetist is always present and accessible in the delivery rooms for any mother requesting an epidural anesthesia (regional anesthesia of the lower body). In addition, the unit’s doctors advise women with high-risk pregnancies and women keen on eliminating risks when taking painkillers during the birth.
