Hoyme, M., Scheungraber, C., Reinhart, K. and Schummer, W. Distributed under Creative Commons CC-BY 4.0 Abstract Common phenomena of spinal anaesthesia for caesarean sections are hypotension and cardiovascular depression, both of which require immediate action. Akrinor® (theodrenaline and cafedrine), a sympathomimetic agent commonly used in Germany for such cases, was phased out with little notice at the end of 2005. Phenylephrine was not and is not an approved drug. Norepinephrine became the first-line drug. The outcome in neonates delivered by elective caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia was studied. At our university hospital, all elective caesarean sections under spinal anaesthesia from 2005 and 2006 were analysed regarding hypotension and the vasopressor administered. If maternal arterial pressure decreased by more than 20% of baseline, patients in 2005 received Akrinor®; patients in 2006 received norepinephrine. Neonatal umbilical blood pH as well as Apgar scores at one, five and ten minutes after delivery were measured. Other than the vasopressor, all patients were treated and all data were collected in an identical manner, per our hospital’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOP). There were 251 patients eligible for the study; 123 in 2005 and 128 in 2006. A vasopressor was administered to 153 women for treatment of hypotention, 82 women (group A = Akrinor®) in 2005 and 71 women (group NE = norephinephrine) in 2006. There were no significant differences between the groups regarding arterial umbilical blood pH or Apgar scores. Despite treatment, prolonged hypotension (>10 minutes) occurred in both groups (group A: n=10; group NE: n=12). The neonatal arterial blood pH did not show any significant difference between the two groups. Two patients in group A, none in group NE, suffered from clinically relevant tachycardia (>50% increase of baseline). Our results thus suggest that norepinephrine is a safe vasopressor suitable for the treatment of peripartal hypotension without any risk of neonatal acidosis in elective caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia. Keywords: hypotension; Caesarean section; cafedrine, theodrenaline drug combination; norepinephrine. _____________ Cite this Article as : Hoyme, M., Scheungraber, C., Reinhart, K. and Schummer, W (2015), "Comparison of Norepinephrine and Cafedrine/Theodrenaline Regimens for Maintaining Maternal Blood Pressure during Spinal Anaesthesia for Caesarean Section," Obstetrics & Gynecology: An International Journal, Vol. 2015 (2015), Article ID 714966, DOI: 10.5171/2015.714966 Obstetrics & Gynecology: An International Journal 2 Introduction We then planned a study to compare Akrinor® to norephinephrine. Because Spinal anaesthesia, rather than general Akrinor® was no longer available for use anaesthesia, is the choice of modern after 2005; we were compelled to compare anaesthetic practice due to pregnancy- the 2005 Akrinor® results to the 2006 associated physiological changes which norephinephrine results. It is important to cause considerable risks regarding airway state that, other than the vasopressor management. It is the preferred method for administered, all patients in both years elective caesarean sections and is used in received identical treatment and all data 80-90% of the cases.

Recent findings Despite ongoing research, no single measure for sufficient treatment of spinal-induced hypotension was 05/25/2020 on BhDMf5ePHKbH4TTImqenVDezntqwKeJGjCYTUOBBz0EyVSh+WquM7uJo3U//pWTO by http://journals.lww.com/co-anesthesiology from Downloaded Downloaded identified so far. Current literature discusses the efficacy of low-dose spinal anesthesia, timing and solutions for adequate fluid therapy and various vasopressor regimens. Present guidelines favor the use of from phenylephrine over ephedrine because of decreased umbilical cord pH values, while norepinephrine is http://journals.lww.com/co-anesthesiology discussed as a probable superior alternative with regard to maternal bradycardia, although supporting data is limited. Alternative pharmacological approaches, such as 5HT3-receptor antagonists and physical methods may be taken into consideration to further improve hemodynamic stability. Summary Current evidence favors a combined approach of low-dose spinal anesthesia, adequate fluid therapy and vasopressor support to address maternal spinal-induced hypotension. As none of the available vasopressors by is associated with relevantly impaired maternal and fetal outcomes, none of them should

  • Phosphodiesterase (PDE)
    Phosphodiesterase (PDE) Phosphodiesterase (PDE) is any enzyme that breaks a phosphodiester bond. Usually, people speaking of phosphodiesterase are referring to cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases, which have great clinical significance and are described below. However, there are many other families of phosphodiesterases, including phospholipases C and D, autotaxin, sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase, DNases, RNases, and restriction endonucleases, as well as numerous less-well-characterized small-molecule phosphodiesterases. The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases comprise a group of enzymes that degrade the phosphodiester bond in the second messenger molecules cAMP and cGMP. They regulate the localization, duration, and amplitude of cyclic nucleotide signaling within subcellular domains. PDEs are therefore important regulators ofsignal transduction mediated by these second messenger molecules. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 Phosphodiesterase (PDE) Inhibitors, Activators & Modulators (+)-Medioresinol Di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (R)-(-)-Rolipram Cat.
