Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The dose that would be effective in preventing postspinal anesthesia hypotension in 50% (effective dose, ED 50) and 90% (ED90) of patients
Systolic blood pressure (SBP) \< 80% of the baseline
1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia
Secondary Outcomes (10)
The incidence of post-spinal anesthesia hypotension
1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia
The incidence of severe post-spinal anesthesia hypotension.
1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia
The incidence of bradycardia.
1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia
The incidence of nausea and vomiting.
1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia
The incidence of hypertension.
1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia
- +5 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Phenylephrine group
ACTIVE COMPARATORProphylactic phenylephrine bolus simultaneous with spinal anesthesia
Norepinephrine group
EXPERIMENTALProphylactic norepinephrine bolus simultaneous with spinal anesthesia
Interventions
An initial prophylactic bolus dose of phenylephrine (37.5μg) simultaneous with spinal anesthesia. If the patient did not respond adequately to the current dose (SBP decreased to \< 80% of baseline), the dose was considered to have failed and the subsequent dose for the following patient was increased to the next higher dose level. The dose administered to subsequent patients varied by increments or decrements of 12.5 μg according to the responses of previous patients according to the up-down sequential allocation.
An initial prophylactic bolus dose of norepinephrine (3μg) simultaneous with spinal anesthesia. The dose administered to subsequent patients varied by increments or decrements of 1 μg according to the responses of previous patients according to the up-down sequential allocation.
