Cardiac Output Changes During Hyperbaric and Isobaric Bupivacaine in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section

Spinal block leads to the reduction of systemic vascular resistance (SVR) which may effect the cardiac output. Ngan Kee et al. has showed that spina block with 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine for Cesarean section combined with intravenous infusion norepinephrine had higher cardiac output than those who received phenylephrine

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • American Society of Anesthesiology classification I - II
  • Elective or urgency Cesarean section with spinal block e.g. cephalopelvic disproportion, premature rupture of membrane
  • Singleton pregnancy
  • Body mass index < 40 kg/m2

Exclusion criteria

  • Pregnancy <35 weeks gestational age
  • Hypertensive disease e.g. gestational hypertension, chronic hypertension, preeclampsia
  • History of allergy to the study drugs

Treatment and study plan

Isobaric marcaine

Drug

Isobaric marcaine 2.2 mL for spinal block

Other names: bupivacaine

Hyperbaric marcaine

Drug

Hyperbaric marcaine 2.2 mL for spinal block

Other names: bupivacaine

Primary outcomes

  1. Change of cardiac output (L/min) after spinal block

    Time frame: 5 minutes after spinal block

    The investigators will measure cardiac output using non-invasive methods (USCOM) before spinal block and 5 minutes after spinal block.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Total dose of vasopressor

    Time frame: 2 hours

    The investigators will record the total dose that treat hypotension during preoperative period

  2. Number of patients who experience systolic blood pressure < 25% of preoperative measurement

    Time frame: 2 hours

    The investigators will monitor blood pressure at interval; before spinal block, then after spinal block every 1 minute for 10 for 10 times, every 2 minute for 5 times, every 3 minutes until delivery then every 5 minutes til the end of surgery. If the patient's systolic blood pressure is declined, vasopressor will be given.
