NCT03818009

Brief Summary

Cognitive dysfunction is the impairment of the mental process of perception, memory and information processing. The preoperative cognitive state is important, as mild cognitive impairment may be worsened following a cesarean section. Our study will aim to assess the incidence of early cognitive dysfunction after elective and emergent cesarean section under general anesthesia.
