Acute Preoperative Stress and Hypotension After Spinal Anesthesia. SAS for "Salivary Amylase and Stress "

NCT01862055 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 79

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Spinal anesthesia is the technique of choice for planned cesarean section. It is associated with a high frequency of maternal hypotension. Hyperactivity of the sympathetic system assessed with the LF/HF ratio (heart rate variability analysis) predicts the severity of maternal hypotension after spinal anesthesia. Increased LF/HF ratio may be explained by maternal stress that can be measured with salivary amylase. The goal of this study is to assess the relationship between salivary amylase and severity of maternal hypotension after spinal anesthesia for planned cesarean section.
