Hypotension after spinal anesthesia for cesarean section: identification of risk factors using an anesthesia information management system

Abstract: Knowledge of these risk factors should increase the anesthesiologist's attention to decide for the necessity to employ prophylactic or therapeutic techniques or drugs to prevent the neonate from any risk resulting of hypotension of the mother.

“…The reported rates of spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in various studies range between 5% and 60%. This wide range is due to the description of hypotension, the time interval when blood pressure measurements are made, age, sex, type of operation, presence of hypertension or diabetes, and the techniques used to collect data (5)(6)(7)(8).…”

“…Factors that increase the risk of hypotension include patient factors (advanced age, female sex, pregnancy, obesity, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and anemia) and technical factors such as a block level at or above T5, use of opioids during premedication, and high local anesthetic dosages (5)(6)(7)(8).…”

“…The occurrence of hypotension due to SA ranges between 15% and 56.5% in some studies 11 12. Hypotension results from a decline in systemic vascular resistance from the sympathetic blockage via vasodilation and the spread of central blood volume to the splanchnic beds and lower extremities.…”

“…Spinal anaesthesia is a widely used anaesthetic technique for caesarean as it avoids the risks of general anesthesia related to difficult intubation and aspiration of gastric contents [1][2][3]. Spinal anesthesia in pregnant women is associated with greater incidence of hypotension (80%) observed in non-pregnant women despite the preloaded or coloaded fluid [4].…”
