Brief Summary:
This will be a prospective randomized study, aiming at comparing an intrathecal fixed dose of chloroprocaine 1% versus an intrathecal fixed dose of ropivacaine 0.75% in elective cesarean sections
Detailed Description:
Neuraxial techniques are the anesthetic techniques of choice in contemporary obstetric anesthesia practice, with a definitive superiority as compared to general anesthesia, since, by their use, serious complications involving the airway can be avoided. Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia has become the favorable technique for both elective and emergency cesarean sections. Various local anesthetics have been used, but ropivacaine is the drug of choice in most hospitals in Greece. However, chloroprocaine is a preferable local anesthetic in USA due to its quick and predictable onset of action. Chloroprocaine was initially used in 1980, but it became obsolete in those years due to neurological symptoms associated with its use caused mainly by the presence of sodium bisulfite and disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) in the early formulations. Nowadays, new formulations of the drug without EDTA makes chloroprocaine safe for use.
The aim of the current randomized controlled trial will be to compare the effect of an intrathecal fixed dose of chloroprocaine versus an intrathecal fixed dose of ropivacaine in parturients subjected to elective cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia.
