%X A decreased lumbosacral subarachnoid space volume is a major factor in cephalad intrathecal spread of local anesthetic in term parturients due to compressive effect of the gravid uterus. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship of symphysiofundal height (SFH) and abdominal girth (AG) with the incidence of hypotension and the highest level of sensory blockade
