“…Regional anesthesia by neuraxial blockade usually decreases SVR so it is avoided, though there are some case reports of using graded epidural technique for anesthetic management of caesarean section in patients of TOF. 4 But as our patient had preeclampsia where decreased blood volume can cause drastic fall in BP and the platelet count was not known, we planned for GA.…”

“…1 The objective of anesthetic management mainly depends on maintaining of systemic vascular resistance and decreasing pulmonary vascular resistance and general anesthesia is recommended. 2,3,4 Preeclampsia is a very common multiorgan disorder of pregnancy. Previous studies on preeclamptic patients undergoing cesarean section recommends epidural anesthesia if coagulopathy is excluded.…”

“…Tehnik epidural juga dapat digunakan karena penurunan SVR tidak secepat jika dibandingkan dengan anestesi spinal. 5 Pada laporan kasus ini menggunakan tehnik anestesi low dose spinal dengan harapan tidak terjadi perubahan hemodinamik yang signifikan sehingga tidak terjadi perubahan shunt dari kanan ke kiri karena penurunan SVR.…”

“…Monitoring of arterial blood pressure can help in titrating epidural local anaesthetics and managing haemodynamic alterations, with the timely use of a vasopressor, and performing arterial blood gas analysis in case of worsening cyanosis or a cyanotic spell. [34]The authors mentioned about the ‘minimisation of sympathetic blockade by maintaining intravascular volume,’ but did not mention if any vasopressor was used or kept ready. Any degree of sympathetic blockade would decrease the SVR and could worsen the right-to-left shunt in such patients.…”
