The patient will usually receive regional (epidural or spinal) anesthesia during the procedure, although general anesthesia is sometimes used. Then usually either the McDonald or Shirodkar technique is used.

Observation occurs for several hours to watch for premature labor. The patient stays in bed or avoids physical activity for 2 to 3 days. Follow-up appointments to monitor for signs of premature labor.
