Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study was to determine the optimal dosage of ondansetron for preventing maternal hypotension during cesarean delivery. METHODS:One hundred and fifty parturient women scheduled for elective cesarean section were randomly assigned to five groups (n=30). Five minutes prior to spinal anesthesia, women were injected with 5 ml of physiological saline (S), 2 mg (O2), 4 mg (O4), 6 mg (O6), or 8 mg (O8) of ondansetron in saline, respectively. Maternal blood pressure and heart rate were measured at 2-min intervals for 30 min. The serum parameters in umbilical cord blood were analyzed after delivery. RESULTS: Compared with group S, the incidence of maternal hypotension was significantly lower in groups O4 and O6 (P < 0.05). The umbilical venouspH was significantly higher in group O4 (P < 0.05); while the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (Pco2) was significantly lower in groups O4, O6, and O8 (P < 0.05); and the bicarbonate (Hco3 (-)) and base excess in extracellular fluid (BEecf) were significantly lower in groups O6 and O8 (P < 0.05). Moreover, minimal changes of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial blood pressure were observed in group O4 (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The optimal dose of ondansetron preloading was 4 mg during cesarean delivery.
