Fluid Management for Cesarean Section

Cesarean section-associated hypotension is one of the pivotal factors to influence the Apgar Score of children and related with the stable hemostasis during the whole process of labor. How to keep circulation in a consistent stability is yet to be known. The investigators hypothesized that different fluids, crystalloids or colloids, can produced varying effects in keeping the physiological environment of labor from significant fluctuating.
