Management Arterial Hypotension During Planned Caesarean Section, Intravenous Ephedrine/Phenylephrine Mixture Versus Intravenous Baby Noradrenaline (ARTEMIS)

October 11, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand

Prospective, Observational and Bicentric Study of the Management of Arterial Hypotension During Planned Caesarean Section. Practice Comparison Between a Referral Center Using According to Service Protocol, an Intravenous Ephedrine/Phenylephrine Mixture at the PSE Versus Another Referral Center Using According to Service Protocol Intravenous Baby Noradrenaline

Comparison of two practices of obstetrical services between the CHU of Clermont Ferrand and the HFME Lyon-Bron in the management of arterial hypotension during an elective cesarean section

Detailed Description

The investigators propose to carry out a bicentric strict observational prospective study between the maternity of the HFME of Lyon-Bron which uses the mixture ephedrine / noradrenaline with the PSE for many years in service protocol for the management of hypotension for cesarean section under perimedullary anesthesia and the CHU of Clermont-Ferrand which uses baby noradrenaline 10 mcg/mL PSE for this same indication according to an institutional protocol. Patients corresponding to the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria will be recruited by a physician investigator and will give their agreement of non-opposition after having received clear oral and written information about our study. The care will not be modified in any way compared to the usual practices of the service.

Study Population

Patients are included on their entry in the obstetrical operating room during an elective caesarean section if they meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The investigating doctor informs them of the terms of our purely observational research study before the intervention and asks them for their oral agreement.

The study treatment administered depends on the protocol of the center in which they are included.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • elective caesarean
  • ≥ 18 years old
  • term ≥ 36 weeks amenorrhea

Exclusion Criteria:

  • contraindication of local anesthetics
  • contraindication of spinal anesthesia
  • patient's refusal
  • patient doesn't talk French
  • patient not covered by the social security system

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Ephedrine/phenylephrine mixture
10 mL of 0.75 mg/ml ephedrine and 10 mL of 37.5 μg/ml phenylephrine are mixed in a 20 mL syringe. The speed is generally started at 20 ml/h and then adapted according to blood pressure.
baby noradrenaline
20 mL of baby norepinephrine 10µg/mL is prepared in a 50 mL syringe. The speed is generally started at 30 ml/h and then adapted according to blood pressure.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Systolic blood pressure
Time Frame: duration of the procedure up to one hour
Time-weighted mean intraoperative systolic blood pressure below a threshold of 80mmHg, 90mmHg and 100mmHg. This measurement is commonly called TWA (time weighted average), corresponding to the area between the chosen PAS threshold and the curve of the measured PAS, divided by the total time of the measurements. Blood pressure will be measured by the Clearsight system, absolutely non-invasive continuous pulse wave contour monitoring.
duration of the procedure up to one hour

Secondary Outcome Measures
