简要总结
Spinal Anaesthesia is the gold standard for caesarean section as it has more advantages such as rapid onset, minimal transfer of drug to the fetus and less failure risks over general anaesthesia due to physiological changes of pregnancy. Normally, T4-T6 level of sensory block is required for smooth conduct of caesarean section. Intraoperative hypotension is the major complication of spinal anaesthesia. This can lead to reduced uteroplacental blood flow, foetal hypoxia and acidosis, and maternal side effects like nausea, vomiting, reduced consciousness. Management of post spinal anaesthesia includes intravenous fluids, leg compression or elevation, left uterine displacement.The mainstay of management is vasopressors like ephedrine, mephentermine, phenylephrine and norepinephrine 4.
Phenylephrine, a directly acting alpha 1 agonist, increases the Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure by causing vasoconstriction and is known to cause lesser foetal acidosis. Therefore, Phenylephrine administration is the preferred line of treatment for post spinal hypotension. Phenylephrine boluses in the range of 50-100 mcg have been used in normotensive parturients safely. However, in patients with pre-eclampsia the dose required is lower due to two factors - small foetus size which reduces aortocaval compression and diffuse endothelial dysfunction resulting in synthesis of vasodilators and increased response to vasoconstrictors. This effect may be more pronounced in pre eclamptics.
Currently, there are very few clinical studies on comparison of fixed dose of phenylephrine required for treating post spinal hypotension in pre- eclamptics and normotensives parturients in lower segment caesarean section surgeries, the aim of this study is comparison of efficacy of 50 mcg Phenylephrine in improving blood pressure in pre eclamptic and normotensive pregnant women undergoing caesarean section.
