  • Ages 18 to 55 years
  • Women only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted

Study population: Patients are included on their entry in the obstetrical operating room during an elective caesarean section if they meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The investigating doctor informs them of the terms of our purely observational research study before the intervention and asks them for their oral agreement. The study treatment administered depends on the protocol of the center in which they are included.

Who may be able to join

  • elective caesarean
  • ≥ 18 years old
  • term ≥ 36 weeks amenorrhea

Who cannot join

  • contraindication of local anesthetics
  • contraindication of spinal anesthesia
  • patient's refusal
  • patient doesn't talk French

About this study

Official title: Prospective, Observational and Bicentric Study of the Management of Arterial Hypotension During Planned Caesarean Section. Practice Comparison Between a Referral Center Using According to Service Protocol, an Intravenous Ephedrine/Phenylephrine Mixture at the PSE Versus Another Referral Center Using According to Service Protocol Intravenous Baby Noradrenaline

Comparison of two practices of obstetrical services between the CHU of Clermont Ferrand and the HFME Lyon-Bron in the management of arterial hypotension during an elective cesarean section

Read the detailed description

The investigators propose to carry out a bicentric strict observational prospective study between the maternity of the HFME of Lyon-Bron which uses the mixture ephedrine / noradrenaline with the PSE for many years in service protocol for the management of hypotension for cesarean section under perimedullary anesthesia and the CHU of Clermont-Ferrand which uses baby noradrenaline 10 mcg/mL PSE for this same indication according to an institutional protocol. Patients corresponding to the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria will be recruited by a physician investigator and will give their agreement of non-opposition after having received clear oral and written information about our study. The care will not be modified in any way compared to the usual practices of the service.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT05513066
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Ephedrine/phenylephrine mixture10 mL of 0.75 mg/ml ephedrine and 10 mL of 37.5 μg/ml phenylephrine are mixed in a 20 mL syringe. The speed is generally started at 20 ml/h and then adapted according to blood pressure.
baby noradrenaline20 mL of baby norepinephrine 10µg/mL is prepared in a 50 mL syringe. The speed is generally started at 30 ml/h and then adapted according to blood pressure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Systolic blood pressure

    Time-weighted mean intraoperative systolic blood pressure below a threshold of 80mmHg, 90mmHg and 100mmHg. This measurement is commonly called TWA (time weighted average), corresponding to the area between the chosen PAS threshold and the curve of the measured PAS, divided by the total time of the measurements. Blood pressure will be measured by the Clearsight system, absolutely non-invasive continuous pulse wave contour monitoring.

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Clinical sign of hypotension

    nausea, vomiting, faint

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour

  2. Foetal pH

    arterial and venous

    Measured: at birth

  3. boli of vasopressor

    appeal to boli of ephedrine and/or phenylephrine and/or noradrenaline

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour

  4. boli of atropine

    appeal to boli of atropine

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour

  5. crystalloids

    volume of crystalloids infused

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour

  6. total diuresis

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour

  7. intrathecal local anesthetics

    amount of intrathecal local anesthetics injected

    Measured: duration of the procedure up to one hour
