Comparison of Continuous Infusion and Bolus Phenylephrine for Prevention of Spinal-Induced Hypotension in Cesarean Section: A Quasi-experimental Study

Cesarean section spinal anesthesia is often associated with maternal hypotension, which causes poor maternal and infant outcomes. Phenylephrine is commonly used as prophylaxis and treatment of spinal-induced hypotension, but the most effective mode of administration, bolus or continuous infusion, is controversial. Obje...

A randomized, double-blind trial comparing the effects of prophylactic norepinephrine versus phenylephrine infusion on umbilical artery hemodynamics during spinal anesthesia for elective cesarean delivery

Hypotension following neuraxial anesthesia is one of the most common complications during cesarean delivery. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of phenylephrine and norepinephrine on placental vascular resistance under neuraxial anesthesia for cesarean section using Doppler ultrasonography. Seventy-s...

Phenylephrine versus ephedrine as prophylactic vasopressors for spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension: A randomized double-blind clinical trial

Introduction: Spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension (SAIH) remains one of the most frequent hemodynamic complications during spinal anesthesia, particularly among high-risk surgical patients. Vasopressor agents such as phenylephrine and ephedrine are commonly administered to prevent hypotension; however, their comparat...

Low-Dose Intravenous Dexmedetomidine for Postspinal Shivering During Cesarean Delivery: A Randomized Double-Blind Trial Showing Comparable Efficacy With Fewer Adverse Effects at the Lower Dose.

Shivering after spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery is common and may increase metabolic demand, impair monitoring, and reduce maternal comfort. Dexmedetomidine is effective for control of shivering, but the optimal intravenous treatment dose remains uncertain. This prospective randomized double-blind trial compare...

ED95 determination of continuous norepinephrine infusion for preventing spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in obese parturients during cesarean delivery

The findings indicate that obese parturients require a significantly higher prophylactic dose of norepinephrine infusion to prevent spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension compared to the non-obese counterparts and underscore the importance of individualized dosing strategies based on BMI to optimize hemodynamic manageme...

Clinical Effects of Low-Dose Esketamine During Emergency Conversion From Labor Epidural Analgesia to Category I Cesarean Section: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Maternal Hemodynamics, Analgesia, Sedation, and Neonatal Outcomes

Low-dose intravenous esketamine 0.15 mg/kg may be a practical bridging adjunct during emergency conversion from labor epidural analgesia to Category I cesarean section and improved early pain control and target sedation without a clear adverse signal in systolic blood pressure, heart rate, oxygenation, or early Apgar s...
