Teaching and Learning Obstetric Anaesthesia in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Current Situation and Perspectives

Purpose of Review Our goal in this review is to describe the current context and peculiarities of obstetric anaesthesia in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) and the ongoing actions and perspectives in terms of teaching and learning, focusing on improving maternal outcomes. Recent Findings Correct identification of barriers and lack of infrastructures and anaesthesia providers are still major problems despite efforts of different stakeholders. International consensus and commitment for 2030 goals are trying to be achieved. Summary Structured training courses look a good option as short- and long-term evaluations show a positive impact.
