AB  - The  definition  of  a  high  neuraxial  block  (High  Spinal)  is  the  presence  of  motor  blockade  above  the  intended  level  and  which  may  require  tracheal  intubation  for  airway  protection  (Chapter  31,  “Quality  Indicators”).1  High  neuraxial  block  was  the  leading  cause  of  anesthesia-related  maternal  death,2  and  the  leading  cause  of  legal  claims  for  maternal  death  or  permanent  brain  injury  filed  between  1990  and  2003.3  The  incidence  of  high  neuraxial  block  in  obstetric  anesthesia  is  1:4336  in  a  complication  repository  of  257,000  anesthetics,  the  highest  incidence  in  all  serious  anesthesia-related  complications.1
