- Brief Summary
The investigator's aim is to compare the efficacy of 3 levobupivacaine solutions with different density on spinal anesthesia for caesarean delivery.
- Detailed Description
Patients scheduled for elective caesarean delivery were separated into 4 groups. Spinal anesthesia was performed with one of the following regimens.
Group 1: Levobupivacaine 8 mg + 20 mcg Fentanyl Group 2: Levobupivacaine 8 mg + 20 mcg Fentanyl + 40 mg Dextrose Group 3: Levobupivacaine 8 mg + 20 mcg Fentanyl + 60 mg Dextrose Group 4: Levobupivacaine 8 mg + 20 mcg Fentanyl + 80 mg Dextrose After anesthesia induction motor block was evaluated via bromage scale and sensory block via pinprick test every 3 minutes for the first 15 minutes, and every 5 minutes up to 60 minutes. Maximum sensory block level, time to reach maximum block level, time needed to achieve T10 sensory level were recorded.
Baby delivery time, and operation duration were also recorded. Time to two segment regression of maximum sensory block, motor block recovery time and time to S2 regression of sensory block will be recorded.
Hemodynamic data, nausea vomiting, were also recorded throughout surgery at the same evaluation periods and postoperative period.
The surgeon will also evaluate the abdominal relaxation surgical block quality as good, medium and poor.
The patient will evaluate spinal block analgesia quality as good, medium or poor.
Pain scores are going to be evaluated by VAS at the beginning, uterine incision and during abdominal closure. Time for first analgesic requirement and postoperative pain is also going to be evaluated by VAS.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change the sensory block level at intraoperative period by pinprick test Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes and every 5 minutes afterwards up to 60 minutes after induction of spinal anesthesia. The highest measured level by pinprick test be recorded the level of maximum sensory block by pinprick test
Change in motor block level from PACU to discharge every 15 minutes until end of surgery and 30 minutes postoperatively up to 2 hours by Bromage Scale motor block recovery time by bromage scale
Change of time to reach T10 sensory spinal block level at intraoperative period by pinprick test Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes and every 5 minutes afterwards up to 60 minutes after induction of spinal anesthesia.In these evaluation periods, the sensory block will be recorded when the T10 is detected. time to reach T10 sensory block by pinprick test
Spinal Block Quality by questioning At the end of surgery the intensity of spinal block will be evaluated via questioning the surgeon and the patient. the surgeon will grade the abdominal relaxivity as good, medium or poor The patient will evaluate spinal block analgesia quality as good, medium or poor.
Change over time at the level of sensory block at intraoperative period by pinprick test Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes and every 5 minutes afterwards up to 60 minutes after induction of spinal anesthesia. The time to two segment regression of maximum sensory block by pinprick test will be recorded. time to two segment regression of maximum sensory block by pinprick test
time to reach maximum level of sensory block at intraoperative period by pinprick test Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes and every 5 minutes afterwards up to 60 minutes after induction of spinal anesthesia. the time to reach the highest measured by pinprick test will be recorded. time to reach maximum level of sensory block by pinprick test
Change to regression of sensory block by pinprick test In the postoperative period, changes in sensory block level will be recorded at 30 min intervals up to 2 hours time to S2 regression of sensory block by pinprick test
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Haemodynamic evaluation by mmHg for systolic , diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes and every 5 minutes afterwards up to 60 minutes after induction of spinal anesthesia. every 30 minutes up to 2 hours measurement of systolic , diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure
