Neonatal adaptation to extrauterine life has many physiological changes in neonatal organ systems. These adaptative changes may be affected such as type of delivery and anesthesia management at birth. near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a popular non-invasive method that can be used in newborns thus monitorize tissue oxygenation regularly. In this study we have purposed to compare the effects of general anesthesia versus spinal anesthesia on newborn's cerebral and renal oxygenation in elective cesarean operations
