Spinal Anaesthesia or General Anaesthesia: Which is better in Premature Neonates: A Case Report.

Abstract
General anaesthesia in premature neonates is associated with various complications. Spinal anaesthesia can be better choice in premature babies in surgeries below umbilicus. Spinal anaesthesia provides all components of balance anaesthesia with minimum cardiorespiratory disturbance and post-operative nausea vomiting, early ambulation and rapid return of appetite. We report a case of one day old premature new-born who was given successful spinal anaesthesia and was operated with good outcome.
