[Effect of spinal anesthesia on peripheral hemodynamics]

H de Marées, C de Caleya, G Hempelmann

    Zeitschrift Fur Kardiologie
    |May 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Spinal anesthesia increased calf blood volume and resting blood flow by reducing peripheral resistance. This suggests enhanced distensibility in low-pressure vessels during anesthesia.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Physiology
    • Anesthesiology

    Context:

    • Spinal anesthesia affects central and peripheral hemodynamics.
    • Understanding these changes is crucial for patient safety.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the impact of spinal anesthesia on peripheral circulatory parameters.
    • To assess changes in intravascular volume and venous capacity.

    Summary:

    • Spinal anesthesia (L3/4; 5 ml Carbostesin with Adrenalin) was administered to eight individuals.
    • Measurements included heart rate, arterial pressure, central venous pressure, peripheral venous pressure, peripheral blood flow, venous capacity, and intravascular basic volume.
    • Results showed an increase in calf resting blood flow and total blood volume, attributed to decreased total peripheral resistance and altered blood distribution.
    • Intravascular total blood volume in the calf increased from 9.7 ± 1.0 ml/100 ml to 10.9 ± 1.1 ml/100 ml, primarily due to changes in basic volume.

    Impact:

    • Findings indicate increased distensibility of low-pressure vessels during spinal anesthesia.
    • This research provides insights into the circulatory adjustments during anesthetic procedures.
