To determine electrocardiographic changes and whether myocardial ischemia occurs during cesarean section, electrocardiograms were recorded continuously using Holter monitoring in 25 patients undergoing elective cesarean section under either spinal or epidural anesthesia. In addition, in 13 of the patients, two-dimensional precordial echocardiography was carried out before and during cesarean section. ST segment depression suggestive of myocardial ischemia occurred in 16 patients including 8 of the 13 with echocardiograms. Wall motion remained entirely normal during episodes of ST segment depression. Patients in whom ST depression developed had significantly more rapid heart rates at delivery than those who did not experience ST depression. We conclude that ST segment depression is a common feature of the electrocardiogram during cesarean section under regional anesthesia and is not the result of myocardial ischemia.
