Decision tree analysis. The decision tree analysis of the various outcomes related to possible exposure to a malignant hyperthermia-triggering anesthetic for a parturient on a maternity unit. A square indicates a decision under evaluation. A circle represents a chance node with a particular probability of that event happening. A triangle represents the terminal node or the final event in the evaluation. An asterisk indicates a value obtained from Stanford University Hospital. CD = cesarean delivery; GA = general anesthesia; MH = malignant hyperthermia; NA = neuraxial anesthesia; No Comp = no complications; Tx = treatment; VD = vaginal delivery.
