About this study

Official title: Spinal Anesthesia in Severe Preeclampsia and Its Impact on Hemodynamics (Case Control Study)

The use of spinal anesthesia in pre-eclamptic pregnant woman is of considerable benefit, as these patients present particular hazards with general anaesthesia, such as concerns for rapid airway control and cerebral blood flow alterations during induction of general anaesthesia and intubation However, the incidence of hypotension is high during spinal anesthesia for Cesarean section and it may approach values up to 95 %.

Read the detailed description

The parturient will be allocated into one of two equal groups (n=30), a severe preeclampsia group (A) and a normotensive group (B). All will receive colload (500 ml voluven) as a coload via wide bore (16 Gauge ) cannula within 5-10 minutes during induction of spinal anesthesia. Standard monitoring with electrocardiography, automated non-invasive arterial pressure (NIAP) measurement, and pulse oximetry will be performed. Systolic arterial pressure (SAP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and diastolic arterial pressure (DAP) will be monitored. Baseline values will be recorded in the supine position. Central venous line will be inserted in severe preeclampsia group and central venous pressure will be measured every 10 minutes.

Spinal anesthesia will be induced with a total of 10 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine and 25 µg fentanyl (total volume 2.5 ml) at the L3-4 interspace in the sitting position then the patient will be returned immediately to the supine position with left lateral tilt.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of participants showing significant hemodynamic changes in response to spinal anesthesia as detected by hemodynamic monitors (blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen saturation)

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of participants showing short term adverse side effects in response to spinal anesthesia as nausea, vomiting and shivering

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preeclampsia, run by Kasr El Aini Hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact ahmed ib elsakka, m.d. (00201002414221, ahmedsakka2@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of participants showing significant hemodynamic changes in response to spinal anesthesia as detected by hemodynamic monitors (blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen saturation) (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Dec 2015.
