Colloid preloading versus crystalloid preloading to prevent hypotension after spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Maternal hypotension is the most frequent complication of spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery, and intravenous fluid preloading is a preventive measure. We aimed to assess the efficacy of colloids versus crystalloids for preloading to reduce the incidence of spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension and vasopressor requirement in healthy parturients during elective cesarean delivery.

Methods

We searched the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE and EMBASE to identify all studies published to June, 2019, through OVID and PubMed. We included randomized controlled trials, comparing colloid preloading with crystalloid preloading in women having spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery. Primary outcomes were the incidence of hypotension and vasopressor requirement. Secondary outcomes included nausea and/or vomiting, neonatal Apgar score, neonatal umbilical blood pH. We used standardized mean differences for expressing continuous outcomes and risk ratios for dichotomous outcomes. Random-effect model was performed to estimate the pooled risk ratios and standardized mean differences.

Results

Thirty-three randomized controlled trials contributed data for this meta-analysis. Fewer women experienced hypotension in the colloid group compared with the crystalloid group (risk ratio: 0.72, 95% confidence interval: 0.63-0.82; 2566 women, 32 studies; P?ConclusionsColloid preloading is superior to crystalloid preloading in reducing the incidence of hypotension induced by spinal anesthesia and vasopressor requirement in the healthy parturients undergoing elective cesarean delivery.The PROSPERO registration number: CRD42018096402.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:The addition of lipophilic opioids to local anesthetics for spinal anesthesia has become a widely used strategy for cesarean anesthesia. A meta-analysis to quantify the benefits and risks of combining sufentanil with bupivacaine for patients undergoing cesarean delivery was conducted. METHODS:A comprehensive literature search without language or date limitation was performed to identify clinical trials that compared the addition of sufentanil to bupivacaine with bupivacaine alone for spinal anesthesia in healthy parturients choosing cesarean delivery. The Q and I2 tests were used to assess heterogeneity of the data. Data from each trial were combined using relative ratios (RRs) for dichotomous data or weighted mean differences (WMDs) for continuous data and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for each trial. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by removing one study a time to assess the quality and consistency of the results. Begg's funnel plots and Egger's linear regression test were used to detect any publication bias. RESULTS:This study included 9 trials containing 578 patients in the final meta-analysis. Sufentanil addition provided a better analgesia quality with less breakthrough pain during surgery than bupivacaine alone (RR = 0.10, 95% CI 0.06 to 0.18, P < 0.001). Sensory block onset time was shorter and first analgesic request time was longer in sufentanil added group compared with the bupivacaine-alone group (WMD = -1.0 min, 95% CI -1.5 to -0.58, P < 0.001 and WMD = 133 min, 95% CI 75 to 213, P < 192, respectively). There was no significant difference in the risk of hypotension and vomiting between these two groups. But pruritus was more frequentely reported in the group with sufentanil added (RR = 7.63, 95% CI 3.85 to 15.12, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION:Bupivacaine and sufentanil combination is superior to that of bupivacaine alone for spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery in analgesia quality. Women receiving the combined two drugs had less breakthrough pain, shorter sensory block onset time, and longer first analgesic request time. However, the addition of sufentanil to bupivacaine increased the incidence of pruritus.

Project description:BackgroundNorepinephrine infusion decreases hypotension after spinal anesthesia during cesarean section. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of norepinephrine infusion and ephedrine bolus against post-spinal hypotension in parturients.MethodsIn this double-blinded, randomized controlled clinical trial, parturients scheduled for elective cesarean section were randomly allocated to receive norepinephrine infusion (0.05 μg·kg-1·min-1) just before spinal anesthesia continuing for 30 min or ephedrine bolus (0.15 mg/kg) just before spinal anesthesia. A rescue bolus (5 μg norepinephrine for the norepinephrine group, and 5 mg ephedrine for the ephedrine group) was administered whenever hypotension occurred. Our primary outcome was the incidence of hypotension within 30 min of spinal anesthesia administration. Secondary outcomes included maternal and neonatal outcomes 30 min after spinal block, and neonatal cerebral oxygenation 10 min after birth.ResultsIn total, 190 patients were enrolled; of these patients, 177 were included in the final analysis. Fewer patients suffered hypotension in the norepinephrine group than in the ephedrine group (29.5% vs. 44.9%, odds ratio [OR]: 0.51, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.28-0.95, P = 0.034). Moreover, the tachycardia frequency was lower in the norepinephrine group than in the ephedrine group (OR: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.11-0.44, P < 0.001), and patients suffered less nausea and vomiting (OR: 0.28, 95% CI: 0.11-0.70, P = 0.004). There was no difference in Apgar scores and umbilical arterial blood gas analysis between the two groups. However, neonatal cerebral regional saturations were significantly higher after birth in the norepinephrine group than in the ephedrine group (mean difference: 2.0%, 95% CI: 0.55%-3.45%, P = 0.008).ConclusionIn patients undergoing elective cesarean section with spinal anesthesia, norepinephrine infusion compared to ephedrine bolus resulted in less hypotension and tachycardia, and exhibited potential neonatal benefits.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02542748; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/record/NCT02542748.

Project description:Background and Goal of Study: Spinal anesthesia for cesarean section is frequently associated with a high incidence of hypotension, which may bring about untoward effects for both the mother and fetus. Recently, norepinephrine has emerged as a promising alternative in maintaining blood pressure in the obstetric setting. Fluid administration is another technique still widely used to prevent maternal hypotension. The optimal fluid strategy to prevent maternal hypotension has not been elucidated yet. It has been recently suggested that the main strategy in the prevention and management of hypotension should be the combination of vasoconstrictive medications and fluid administration. The aim of this randomized study was to compare the incidence of maternal hypotension in parturients receiving either colloid preload or crystalloid co-load in the setting of prophylactic norepinephrine infusion during elective cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia. Materials and Methods: After ethics committee approval, 102 parturients with full-term singleton pregnancies were randomly allocated to either 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 5 mL/kg before the onset of spinal anesthesia (colloid preload group) or Ringer's lactate solution 10 mL/kg concurrent with the subarachnoid injection (crystalloid co-load group). In both groups, norepinephrine 4 μg/min starting simultaneously with the administration of the subarachnoid solution was also administered. The primary outcome of the study was the incidence of maternal hypotension, defined as systolic arterial pressure (SAP) <80% of baseline. The incidence of severe hypotension (SAP < 80 mmHg), total dose of vasoconstrictive agents administered, as well as the acid-base status and Apgar score of the neonate and any incidence of maternal side effects were also recorded. Results: Data analysis was performed on 100 parturients: 51 in the colloid preload group and 49 in the crystalloid co-load group. No significant differences were demonstrated between the colloid preload group and the crystalloid co-load group in the incidence of hypotension (13.7% vs. 16.3%, p = 0.933) or the incidence of severe hypotension (0% vs. 4%, p = 0.238). The median (range) ephedrine dose was 0 (0-15) mg in the colloid preload group and 0 (0-10) mg in the crystalloid co-load group (p = 0.807). The incidence of bradycardia, reactive hypertension, requirement for modification of vasopressor infusion, time to the first occurrence of hypotension, and maternal hemodynamics did not differ between the two groups. There were no significant differences in other maternal side effects or neonatal outcomes between groups. Conclusions: The incidence of hypotension with a norepinephrine preventive infusion is low and comparable with both colloid preload and crystalloid co-load. Both fluid-loading techniques are appropriate in women undergoing cesarean delivery. It appears that the optimal regimen for prevention of maternal hypotension is a combined strategy of a prophylactic vasopressor such as norepinephrine and fluids.
