ABSTRACT
Background and Objectives:
Spinal anesthesia is the technique of choice for elective cesarean section with a prominent side effect of postspinal anesthesia hypotension (PSH). This needs an early prediction to avoid feto-maternal complication. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of perfusion index (PI) and inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) in the prediction of PSH. Material andMethods:
Thirty parturients of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status (ASA-PS) 1 and two undergoing cesarean delivery participated in the study. IVCCI, PI, baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean blood pressure (MBP), and heart rate (HR) were noted in the preoperative period. The fall of MBP by 20% from baseline or below 65 mm Hg was considered PSH. After spinal anesthesia, SBP, DBP, MBP, and HR were noted again for diagnosing PSH.Results:
It did not show any statistical difference when comparing the PI between the PSH and non-PSH groups in both the PSH definition groups. IVCCI was significantly higher when PSH was considered MBP <65 mm Hg (P = 0.01). However, IVCCI was found to be statistically insignificant if PSH was considered a 20% reduction in baseline MBP. The correlation matrix between IVCCI and PI showed Pearson's r-value of 0.525, indicating a substantial relationship between the two (P = 0.003). Multivariate logistic regression analysis had shown that neither IVCCI nor PI was a good predictor of PSH in parturients for both definition groups for PSH.Conclusion:
Although there is a modest correlation between PI and IVCCI, both cannot be used to predict postspinal hypotension in parturients undergoing elective lower-segment cesarean section (LSCS).
