Actual (reported)This study will determine the level of glucose (sugar) in the CSF (fluid that surrounds the spinal cord) in 30 subjects having spinal anesthesia for cesarean section using a bedside glucose meter. Spinal anesthesia is done by injecting drugs through a needle into the CSF. Subjects will have 1/10 tsp of CSF removed at the time of spinal anesthesia to measure the level of glucose. Glucose meters measure glucose, usually in the blood, and they can be used in the operating room. This study will see whether a glucose meter will easily measure the level of glucose in CSF.

Actual (reported)Primary Outcome is to establish reference ranges for glucose in CSF in parturients undergoing Cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia using glucose meters currently undergoing testing at BC Women's Hospital
1 day
Our secondary objective is to compare the performance of glucose meters (bed side testing devices for glucose) to measure CSF glucose via three glucose meters (Nova Stat Strip, Abbott Precision Xtra and Roche Accucheck Inform 2).
