6- Intrathecal opioids are synergistic with local
anesthetics and intensify sensory block without
increasing sympathetic block.

- Time taken to reach T4 was similar.
- No patient had inadequate anesthesia

9Bupivacaine - sparing effect of fentanyl in
spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery.
- CONCLUSIONS
- The optimal dose of hyperbaric bupivacaine to
produce surgical anesthesia was 12 mg, which was
accompanied by high sensory block. With the
addition of 10 microg of fentanyl, the dose of
bupivacaine could be reduced to 8 mg in spinal
anesthesia for cesarean delivery
Choi DH Reg Anesth Pain Med. 2000
10- Low dose spinal anesthesia with Intrathecal
opioids improved maternal haemodynamics.
11- Non pharmacological methods
- 15 left lateral tilt... gt Still 70- 80
- Pharmacological methods
- Vasopressors (Phenylephrine or ephedrine)
- IV fluid loading
12- Ephedrine or Phenylephrine ???
- Prophylactic infusion, on demand or combined
with fluid loading.
13- Ephedrine
- Recent evidence suggests that ephedrine causes
neonatal acidosis, and large doses may be harmful
in a compromised fetus, by increasing oxygen
demand and anaerobic metabolism. - Placental transfer and fetal metabolic effects of
phenylephrine and ephedrine during spinal
anesthesia for cesarean delivery.

14- Phenylephrine.
- Has direct effect on alpha-1 receptor..
- Potent short-acting vasoconstrictor.
- Better neonatal outcome and higher umbilical
artery pH values . - Incidence of maternal bradycardia was as high
27 without coloading, 17 with coloading with
crystalloids.

umbilical cord arterial pH. Data are mean

16- Ephedrine vs Phenylephrine iv bolus
- Phenylephrine 100mcg iv vs Ephedrine 5-10mg
iv - ( Phenylephrine had a faster onset of action, low
incidence of IONV). - Lower dose of phenylephrine (40-80mcg iv ) failed
to reduce the incidence of IONV and
hypotension. - Combination of low dose phenylephrine 20mcg and
ephedrine 5mg not effective. - Ngan Kee,Anesthesia 2008,
- Dyer,Anesthesiology2009,
- Datta,Anesth2005.
17Prophylactic Phenylephrine infusions vs
bolus Phenylephrine inf 25-50mcgm/min better
than phenylephrine iv bolus.
Phenylephrine 25-50mcg/min inf 100mcg bolus
Incidence of hypotension 13-23 85-88
Allen TK Analg2010 ,
18- Prophylactic Phenylephrine infusions
- High dose 100 mcgm/min is associated with
hypertensive episodes and maternal bradycardia.
- Titration recommmended.
- Ngan Kee,Anesth Analg2008.
19- The Proposal
- Low dose prophylactic phenylephrine infusions
in combination with iv fluid loading.
