Comparative dose-response study of intrathecal hyperbaric ropivacaine for cesarean delivery in preterm singleton versus twin pregnancies.

Introduction: Previously, we demonstrated that patients with full-term singletons and preterm twins require similar dose of intrathecal hyperbaric ropivacaine. However, these findings may be attributable to enrolled patients with preterm twin pregnancies. In this study, we aimed to determine the intrathecal dose requirements of hyperbaric ropivacaine for twins and singletons at equal gestational ages.
