The impact of height on the spread of spinal anesthesia and stress response in parturients undergoing caesarean section: a prospective observational study

Abstract: Background The spread of spinal anesthesia was influenced by many factors, and the effect of body height on spinal anesthesia is still arguable. This study aimed to explore the impact of height on the spread of spinal anesthesia and the stress response in parturients. Methods A total of ninety-seven parturients were allocated into two groups according to their height: the shorter group (body height was shorter than 158 cm) and taller group (body he… Show more

“…In comparison with it in Conventional group, the dose of bupivacaine in Test group was less, and the time to reach adequate anesthesia was later (Table 4). This is supported by other studies (30,42). However, the height based dosing algorithm of bupivacaine did not delay the operation duration, because the time to reach adequate anesthesia was 4.858 (1.521) min, which was approximate to the time of skin disinfection, placing sterile surgical drape and wearing sterile surgical clothes for surgeon.…”

“…Therefore, the height based dosing algorithm of bupivacaine in this study is reasonable, especially using a low dose of bupivacaine (16,17). The height of parturient is associated with the block onset time (42) and block level (29), and is regarded as a risk factor for hypotension (29). However, in some studies, the variation in block spread of the subjects with same height is very large, the height does not influence the block level of spinal anesthesia (13,31).…”

“…Dosis yang disesuaikan didukung oleh data hemodinamik yang menunjukkan bahwa waktu untuk mencapai tingkat sensorik yang sesuai untuk operasi berkorelasi dengan tinggi badan dan berbanding terbalik dengan berat badan. 9,10 Penelitian sebelumnya telah mengkonfirmasi bahwa tingkat akhir blok dapat diprediksi dengan tinggi dan berat badan pasien. 4 Dosis optimal akan memungkinkan penyebaran dermatomal tetapi dapat menghindari kejadian hipotensi ibu.…”
