Summary

This study evaluates the effects of different anesthetic techniques on QT, QTc, and Pwd in cesarean section. Half of participants received general anesthesia, while the other half received spinal anesthesia Electrocardiography (ECG) recordings were performed at preoperative, 5, 15, 30 min after initiation anesthesia and 30 min post-operatively. Hemodynamic state were also recorded at the same time intervals. QT, corrected QT (QTc), QT dispersion (QTd), QTc dispersion (QTcd), P-wave dispersion (Pwd), corrected JT interval, T wave (Tp-e), transmular dispersion of repolarization durations were measured from ECG records at predetermined time intervals of spinal or general anesthesia.

Conditions

  • Caesarean Section
  • Anesthesia; Reaction

Interventions

DRUG

Bupivacaine

2 ml of hyperbaric bupivacaine (0.5%) was given intrathecally to patients in a sitting position by midline attempt between the L3 and L4 intervertebral space.ECG recordings were performed at preoperative, 5, 15, and 30 minutes after initial anesthesia and 30 minutes post-operatively.

DRUG

Sevoflurane

General anesthesia was maintained with 2-3% sevoflurane. ECG recordings were performed at preoperative, 5, 15, and 30 minutes after initial anesthesia and 30 minutes post-operatively.
