I would like to know the criteria to follow before a C/S patient is accepted by a Maternity nurse who does not have any kind PACU training.
How long PACU nurse has to closely observe the patient?
When is a patient considered stable after C/S (post spinal or GA)?
What kind of assessment a Maternity nurse must do on a C/Section patient?
Please provide me with the above information, THANK YOU

At our hospital, the patients following c section must achieve 9/10 Aldrete score, and stable VS as part of the assessment prior to transfer to the obstetrical unit.
Any concerns that they are bleeding/unstable would require extended observation.
