Spinal Anesthesia in Preeclamptic Parturients
In this prospective cohort study, we compared the incidence and severity of spinal anesthesia (SA) associated hypotension in preeclamptics (n=25) versus healthy parturients (n=25) undergoing cesarean delivery. After proper preloading, SA was administered with 0.75% hyperbaric bupivacaine. Blood pressure (BP) was recorded before performing SA (baseline BP), and then after SA, every 2 minutes for...
متن کاملCricoid pressure application to awake volunteers: discomfort cannot be used to indicate appropriate force.
To the Editor: The lowest platelet counts at which one can safely administer neuraxial anesthesia for labour and delivery is controversial. Published studies are few and sample sizes small.1–3 We report our institutional experience with thrombocytopenic parturients, probably the largest group to date. Medical records from 1997 to 2002 of parturients with platelet counts < 100,000·μL–1 during th...
متن کاملReproducibility of Manual Platelet Estimation Following Automated Low Platelet Counts.
OBJECTIVES Manual platelet estimation is one of the methods used when automated platelet estimates are very low. However, the reproducibility of manual platelet estimation has not been adequately studied. We sought to assess the reproducibility of manual platelet estimation following automated low platelet counts and to evaluate the impact of the level of experience of the person counting on th...
متن کاملRisk of Chronic Low Back Pain Among Parturients Who Undergo Cesarean Delivery With Neuraxial Anesthesia
To investigate the risk of chronic low back pain (LBP) in parturients undergoing cesarean delivery (CD) with neuraxial anesthesia (NA). LBP is common during pregnancy and also after delivery, but its etiology is poorly understood. Previous studies that investigated the correlation between epidural labor analgesia and chronic low back pain were inconclusive. These studies lacked objective diagno...
متن کاملPlatelet counts and coagulation tests prior to neuraxial anesthesia in patients with preeclampsia: a retrospective analysis.
This retrospective, descriptive study aimed to assess hematologic testing practices in 100 patients with preeclampsia undergoing neuraxial blockade (NB). Prior to NB, platelet (PLT) count was performed in 61 (98%) of 62 women in labor and in 37 (97%) of 38 women undergoing cesarean delivery (CD). No patients had a pre-NB PLT count <70 × 10(9)/L. Pre-NB tests for prothrombin time (PT) and activa...
