Effect of anesthesia choice on hemodynamic stability and fetomaternal outcome of the preeclamptic patient undergoing cesarean section.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The main aim of this study is to compare hemodynamic stability and feto-maternal outcome between general and spinal anesthesia in pre-eclampsia patients undergoing C/S.

Methods

A prospective cohort study was used with a calculated sample size of 266. Comparison of numerical variables between study groups was done using unpaired student t-test and Manny Whitney U test for symmetric and asymmetric data respectively. A P-value <0.05 considered significant.

Result

There is a comparable distribution of socio-demographic, obstetric variables, and baseline hemodynamic variables between groups. The change in a hemodynamic variable from baseline and during the first 24 h was also comparable between groups. The numbers of ICU admission were comparable between groups
