Treatment and study plan

crystalloid

Other

Patients will receive the rapid co-loading with plasma solution A (PSA) 10ml/kg, from the initiation of spinal anesthesia, within 10 minutes.

colloid

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of maternal hypotension

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    defined as: Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) < 80% of baseline SBP

Secondary outcomes

  1. incidence of severe hypotension

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    defined as: Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) < 70% of baseline SBP

  2. incidence of symptomatic hypotension

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    defined as: hypotension plus nausea and/or vomiting and/or dizziness and/or breathlessness

  3. incidence of bradycardia

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    Heart Rate (HR) <50 bpm

  4. incidence of Hypertension

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)> 120% of baseline SBP

  5. Minimum recorded Systolic Blood Pressure (Minimum SBP)

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    The lowest recorded SBP during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

  6. Minimum recorded Heart Rate (Minimum HR)

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    The lowest recorded HR during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

  7. Cumulative duration of hypotension

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    duration of hypotension, minutes

  8. Onset time of hypotension

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    Time from the induction of spinal anesthesia until the first event of hypotension occur

  9. Total phenylephrine use

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    Cumulative dose of phenylephrine administered via continuous infusion, mcg

  10. Rescue phenylephrine use

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    number of patients who require the rescue use of phenylephrine

  11. Rescue ephedrine use

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    number of patients who require the rescue use of ephedrine

  12. Atropine use

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    number of patients who require the rescue use of atropine

  13. Incidence of nausea, vomiting

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    The incidence of nausea, vomiting

  14. Incidence of dizziness, breathlessness

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    The incidence of dizziness, breathlessness

  15. Cutaneous stellate ganglion sympathetic activity

    Time frame: during the time period from induction of spinal anesthesia until delivery

    noninvasive recording of skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) using conventional ECG electrodes

  16. Apgar Score, 1 min, 5 min (fetal outcome)

    Time frame: 1 min, 5 min after delivery

    Apgar Score of delivered baby. The Apgar score is determined by evaluating the newborn baby on five simple criteria on a scale from zero to two, then summing up the five values thus obtained. The resulting Apgar score ranges from zero to 10. The five criteria are the Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration. Each is scored on a scale of 0 to 2, with 2 being the best score. The test is done at 1 and 5 minutes after birth.

  17. Umbilical arterial pH

    Time frame: immediately after delivery

    pH of Umbilical Arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) (fetal outcome)

  18. Umbilical arterial base excess

    Time frame: immediately after delivery

    base excess of Umbilical ABGA (fetal outcome), mmol/L

  19. Umbilical arterial partial oxygen pressure (PO2)

    Time frame: immediately after delivery

    partial oxygen pressure of Umbilical ABGA (fetal outcome), mmHg

  20. Umbilical arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PCO2)

    Time frame: immediately after delivery

    carbon dioxide partial pressure of Umbilical ABGA (fetal outcome), mmHg
