If the risk of bleeding of a combination of an APA and an anticoagulant outweighs the risk of VTE, we suggest considering intermittent pneumatic compression over anticoagulant prophylaxis, without disconti nuing the APA. (2C)

Patients in whom neuraxial anaesthesia is planned, although the administration of aspirin alone does not increase the incidence of spinal haematoma, a higher rate of complications could appear if pharmacological thromboprophylaxis is administered concurrently. In these cases, postoperative thromboprophylaxis initia tion should be suggested. (2C)

After surgery, the first dose of aspirin should be given as soon as possible, once haemostasis is considered adequate. (2B)

In the case of clopidogrel, the main recommendation is to give the drug without any loading dose between 24 and 48 h after surgery. (2C)

Monitoring for clinical signs of bleeding or unex plained anaemia is recommended during concomitant administration of an anticoagulant for thrombopro phylaxis (LMWH, unfractionated heparin, fondaparinux, warfarin or any other) and an APA throughout the postoperative period. (1C)

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should be avoided in patients treated with APA. (2C)

Gum chewing appears to be effective and is low risk. It may be a redundant treatment if a policy for early oral intake is being used. However, it should be considered if delayed oral intake is planned. (2C)

Fluid preloading, the intravenous administration of ephedrine or phenyl ephrine, and lower limb compression are effective in the reduction of hypotension and the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative nausea and vomiting. (1B)

Antiemetic agents are effective for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting dur ing cesarean delivery. Multimodal approach should be applied to treat postoperative nausea and vomiting. (1B)

Multimodal postoperative analgesia that includes regular NSAIDs and paracetamol is recommended for enhanced re covery for cesarean delivery. (1B)
