简要总结
During caesarean section, blood pressure variations especially a reduction in blood pressure (or hypotension) can bring harmful effects to mother and baby. This usually occurs after spinal anaesthesia is administered. Usually, the anaesthetist will treat hypotension as it occurs. However, a new medical device is now available to predict hypotension. It is called the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI). This device allows the prediction of hypotension; hence, treatment can be given before it occurs. It has been widely utilised in major surgeries like abdominal tumour surgery and cardiac surgery worldwide and has shown a substantial reduction in hypotension. This study aims to determine whether the duration and severity of hypotension can be reduced when HPI is used in lower segment caesarean sections. The secondary objective of the study is to determine if the complication rate can be reduced in both mother and baby.
详细描述
Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) has been shown to reduce IOH significantly in non-cardiac and major abdominal surgeries.The role of HPI beyond reducing IOH has also been a subject of research. Andrzejeska et al. demonstrated that the use of HPI in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery leads to lower reductions in post-surgery haemoglobin levels, shorter duration of hypotension and shorter hospital admissions. Additionally, the intervention group had shorter timeframes from the end of surgery to extubation.
The development of a non-invasive finger blood pressure device compatible with HPI called the Acumen IQ cuff, made it possible to use HPI without inserting an arterial catheter. The arterial pressure waveform generated by a non-invasive finger cuff was reliable and in agreement with the radial artery blood pressure. A retrospective analysis was conducted by Frassanito et al. to determine the performance of HPI using arterial waveform recorded by a non-invasive finger probe to predict hypotension in patients undergoing CS under spinal anaesthesia. They have found that HPI, using this non-invasive probe, was able to predict hypotension with a sensitivity and specificity of 83% and 83% at 3 minutes, 97% and 97% at 2 minutes, and 100% and 100% at 1 minute, before it occurs.
This study aims to determine if the solution to reduce IOH lies in predicting intraoperative hypotension during lower segment ceaserean section (CS). The benefits of HPI may extend beyond reducing the incidence and severity of IOH, to bringing positive outcomes to the foetus. This study will determine whether integrating an early warning system produces benefits significant enough to justify changing our anaesthetic practice.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Varying methods have been utilised to reduce IOH in CS. A novel software, HPI, was developed to predict hypotension, enabling clinicians to institute guided treatment before maternal hypotension occurs. The investigator need to determine if HPI has benefits in CS, thus leading to better maternal and neonatal outcomes.

盲法说明
By computer randomisation, patients will be randomised into two groups, Group A (Intervention: HPI) or Group B (control: oNIBP). Standard monitoring will be applied, including a 3-lead electrocardiogram, pulse oximetry, and oNIBP in the upper arm. The oNIBP monitoring will be performed every 1 minute before, and every 3 minutes after the baby is delivered, up to 90 minutes of surgery duration. After 90 minutes, data collection will cease. In addition to the standard monitoring, all patients will have an Acumen IQ cuff placed on one of their fingers, as Appendix A shows, connected to haemodynamic monitoring using HemoSphere (Edwards Lifesciences) with HPI software enabled. In Group A, the Acumen IQ cuff, with HPI and other haemodynamics parameters, is available to the anaesthetist to view and act upon. While in Group B, the attending anaesthetist will be blinded from the HPI parameters.
