Anesthetic management for birth of the "Canton" quadruplets: a multidisciplinary team approach.

This article presents a case study of the successful anesthesia management in the birth of quadruplets at Aultman Hospital in Canton, Ohio. A review of recent literature is also provided. With the increasing use of fertility drugs, multiple births will inevitably cease to be viewed as a rare phenomenon. Anesthesia practitioners will increasingly be presented with the challenge of planning for the management of these patients. The authors believe an anesthetic plan must be integrated into a multidisciplinary team approach to achieve successful management of parturient and neonates.
