Evaluation of the Analgesic Effect of Midazolam and Ketamine as an Additive to Intrathecal Bupivacaine in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section
Objective :To compare the analgesic effect of intrathecal midazolam and ketamine as an additive to bupivacaine in patients undergoing cesarean section .
Methods:Following Ethics Committee approval and informed patients consent, Ninety patients 18-45 yr old ASA physical status I or II, scheduled for cesarean section under spinal anesthesia, were studied in a prospective, double-blinded, randomized way. The patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups of 30 each. The ketamine group (groupK) received bupivacaine 10mg combined with 0.1 mg/kg ketamine preservative free ,the midazolam group (group M) received bupivacaine 10mg combined with0.02 mg/ kg midazolam and the placebo group (group P) received bupivacaine 10mg combined with 0.5ml distilled water intrathecally . Time to first requirement of analgesic supplement, Sensory block onset time, maximum sensory level , onset of motor block, duration of blockade, hemodynamics variables, the incidence of hypotension, ephedrine requirements, bradycardia ,hypoxemia [Saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO2)<90], postoperative analgesic requirements and Adverse events, such as sedation, dizziness , Pruritus and postoperative nausea and vomiting were recorded. Patients were instructed preoperatively in the use of the verbal rating scale (VRS) from 0 to 10 (0no pain, 10maximum imaginable pain) for pain assessment. If the VRS exceeded four and the patient requested a supplement analgesic, diclofenac Na supp 100 mg was to be given for post-operative pain relief as needed . For breakthrough pain(VRS >4) if time of administration of diclofenac Na less than 8h,Pethidine 25 mg IV was given.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Postoperative analgesic requirements
Time Frame: 24 hours postoperative(Time from the injection of intrathecal anesthetic solution to 24 hours postoperative)
|
postoperative analgesic requirements will be assessed by verbal rating scale (VRS) from 0 to 10 (0no pain, 10maximum imaginable pain).Each administration was initiated by patient request( VRS>4)
|
24 hours postoperative(Time from the injection of intrathecal anesthetic solution to 24 hours postoperative)
|
Time to first requirement of analgesic supplement
Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of 24 hours after intratechal injection (Time from the injection of intrathecal anesthetic solution to first requirement of analgesic supplement will be recorded.)
|
analgesic administration was initiated by patient request(verbal rating scale[ VRS]>4)
|
participants will be followed for the duration of 24 hours after intratechal injection (Time from the injection of intrathecal anesthetic solution to first requirement of analgesic supplement will be recorded.)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Sensory block onset time will be assessed by a pinprick test
Time Frame: sensory block will be assessed by pinprick test every 10 seconds following intrathecal injection
|
The onset of sensory block was defined as the time between the end of injection of the intrathecal anesthetic and the absence of pain at the T10 dermatome
|
sensory block will be assessed by pinprick test every 10 seconds following intrathecal injection
|
duration of sensory block will be assessed by a pinprick test
Time Frame: sensory block will be assessed by pinprick test every 5 minuts following intrathecal injection
|
The duration of sensory block was defined as the time for regression from the maximum block height sensory block to T10 dermatom will be assessed by pinprick test every 5 minuts following intrathecal injection
|
sensory block will be assessed by pinprick test every 5 minuts following intrathecal injection
|
the onset of motor block will be assessed by the modified Bromage score
Time Frame: every10 seconds following intrathecal injection
|
The onset of motor block was defined as the time between the end of injection of the intrathecal anesthetic to Bromage block 1
|
every10 seconds following intrathecal injection
|
duration of motor block will be assessed by the modified Bromage score
Time Frame: every 5 minutes following intrathecal injection
|
duration of motor block was defined the time from intrathecal injection to Bromage score0
|
