  6. Guidelines 2

  7. Anesthetic Care for Labor and Vaginal Delivery Dr. Dariush Abtahi • timing of neuraxial analgesia and outcome of labor • neuraxial analgesia and trial of labor after prior cesarean delivery • anesthetic/analgesic techniques

  8. Timing of Neuraxial Analgesia and Outcome of Labor (spontaneous, instrumented, and cesarean delivery) late (cervical dilations> 4-5 cm) early (cervical dilations< 4-5 cm) epidural analgesia 🆚 ? A1-E cervical dilations > 2 cm epidural analgesia cervical dilations < 2 cm ? A3-E 🆚 combined spinal–epidural (CSE) analgesia early (cervical dilations< 4-5 cm) late (cervical dilations> 4-5 cm) ? 🆚 A2-E

  9. Timing of Neuraxial Analgesia and Outcome of Labor • Recommendations: • Provide patients in early labor(< 5cm dilation) the option of neuraxial analgesia. • Offer neuraxial analgesia on an individualized basis regardless of cervical dilation. • Reassure patients that the use of neuraxial analgesia does not increase the incidence of cesarean delivery.

  10. Recommendations: Offer neuraxial techniques Consider early placement of a neuraxial catheter (labor analgesia/anesthesia in the event of operative delivery) Neuraxial Analgesia and Trial of Labor after Prior Cesarean Delivery { mode of delivery duration of labor ? B1-E epidural analgesia adverse outcomes

  11. early insertion of a neuraxial catheter for complicated parturients CIE analgesia epidural LAs + opioids high vs. low concentrations of LAs single-injection spinal opioids ± LAs pencil-point spinal needles CSE analgesia PCEA Anesthetic/analgesic techniques

  12. Recommendations: Consider early insertion of a neuraxial catheter for obstetric (twin gestation/preeclampsia) or anesthetic indications (anticipated difficult airway/obesity) to reduce the need for GA if an emergent procedure becomes necessary. In these cases, the insertion of a neuraxial catheter may precede the onset of labor or a patient’s request for labor analgesia. Early Insertion of a Neuraxial Catheter for Complicated Parturients ⬆︎ maternal / neonatal outcomes ?

  13. CIE Analgesia ⬇︎ maternal pain and discomfort single-shot IV opioids A2-B 🆚 continuous infusion of IV opioids A3-B ? 🆚 CIE local anesthetics ⬆︎ pain relief 🆚 A3-B IM opioids duration of labor and mode of delivery A3-E 🆚 ? single-injection spinal opioids duration of labor and mode of delivery B1-E ?

  14. CIE Analgesia • Recommendations: • Continuous epidural infusion may be used. • When a continuous epidural infusion of local anesthetic is selected, an opioid may be added to: • ⬇︎ concentration of local anesthetic • ⬆︎ quality of analgesia • ⬇︎ motor block

  15. Analgesic Concentrations ⬆︎ analgesic quality A1-B + opioids epidural local anesthetics spontaneous delivery, hypotension, pruritus, and 1-min Apgar scores 🆚 ? A1-E _ opioids analgesic efficacy and duration of labor CEI of low concentrations of local anesthetics + opioids ? A2-E 🆚 spontaneous delivery and neonatal Apgar scores CEI of high concentrations of local anesthetics _ opioids ? A1-E

  16. Recommendations: Use dilute concentrations of local anesthetics with opioids to produce as little motor block as possible. Analgesic Concentrations low concentrations of local anesthetics ⬇︎ frequency of motor block A1-B other maternal outcomes (hypotension, nausea, pruritus, respiratory depression, and urinary retention) epidural local anesthetics + opioids ?

  17. Single-injection Spinal Opioids ± Local Anesthetics ⬆︎ duration of analgesia A1-B spinal opioid duration of labor, mode of delivery, and other adverse outcomes: nausea, vomiting, headache, and pruritus 🆚 ? B1-E IV opioid + local anesthetics single-injection spinal opioids 🆚 ? _ local anesthetics

  18. Single-injection Spinal Opioids ± Local Anesthetics • Recommendations: • effective/time- limited, analgesia • If labor duration is anticipated to be longer than the analgesic effects of the spinal drugs chosen, or if there is a reasonable possibility of operative delivery, then consider a catheter technique instead of a single-injection technique. • A local anesthetic may be added to a spinal opioid to ⬆︎ duration and ⬆︎ quality of analgesia.

  19. Pencil-point Spinal Needles cutting-bevel spinal needles 🆚 Pencil-point Spinal Needles ⬇︎ frequency of post-dural puncture headache A1-B

  20. Recommendations: Use pencil-point spinal needles instead of cutting-bevel spinal needles ⬇︎ post-dural puncture headache. Pencil-point Spinal Needles

  21. CSE Analgesia CSE local anesthetics + opioids epidural local anesthetics + opioids 🆚 • analgesia • mode of delivery • hypotension • pruritus • 1-min Apgar scores ⬆︎ analgesia ⬇︎ onset time A2-B ? A1-E

  22. CSE Analgesia • Recommendations: • If labor duration is anticipated to be longer than the analgesic effects of the spinal drugs chosen, or if there is a reasonable possibility of operative delivery, then consider a catheter technique instead of a single-injection technique. • CSE techniques may be used to provide effective and rapid onset of analgesia for labor.

  23. CSE Analgesia

  24. Patient-controlled Epidural Analgesia ⬇︎ analgesic consumption A1-B • duration of labor • mode of delivery • motor block • 1- and 5-min Apgar scores 🆚 PCEA CIE ? A1-E PCEA + background infusion A1-B ⬆︎ analgesic efficacy 🆚 mode of delivery, frequency of motor block PCEA _ background infusion ? A1-E

  25. Patient-controlled Epidural Analgesia • Recommendations: • An effective and flexible approach for the maintenance of labor analgesia. • preferable to fixed-rate CIE,⬇︎ dosages of local anesthetics • PCEA may be used ± background infusion

  26. Patient-controlled Epidural Analgesia

  27. Removal of Retained Placenta • anesthetic techniques for removal of retained placenta • nitroglycerin for uterine relaxation

  28. Anesthetic Techniques • Recommendations: • No preferred anesthetic technique. If an epidural catheter in place + stable hemodynamics⇒ epidural anesthesia • Assess hemodynamic status before neuraxial anesthesia • Aspiration prophylaxis • Titrate sedation/analgesia (respiratory depression/pulmonary aspiration) • Major maternal hemorrhage + hemodynamic instability⇒ GA + endotracheal tube

  29. Recommendations: Alternate to terbutaline sulfate/GA + halogenated agents incremental doses (IV/sublingual) to sufficiently relax the uterus Nitroglycerin for Uterine Relaxation inconsistent findings A2-E Successful uterine relaxation B3/B4

  30. Equipment, facilities, support personnel General, epidural, spinal, CSE anesthesia IV fluid preloading/co-loading Ephedrine/phenylephrine Neuraxial opioids for postoperative analgesia after neuraxial anesthesia Anesthetic Care for Cesarean Delivery

  31. Equipment, Facilities, and Support Personnel • Recommendations: • Equipment, facilities, support personnel available in the labor and delivery operating suite = main operating suite

  32. Equipment, Facilities, and Support Personnel • Resources for the treatment of potential complications: • failed intubation • inadequate analgesia/anesthesia • hypotension • respiratory depression • local anesthetic systemic toxicity • pruritus, and vomiting • Equipment and personnel for obstetric patients recovering from neuraxial or GA.

  33. General, Epidural, Spinal, or CSE Anesthesia ⬆︎ Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min epidural anesthesia A2-B umbilical artery pH values 🆚 ? GA A2-E Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min ? spinal anesthesia A1-E umbilical artery pH values ? 🆚 GA epidural anesthesia ? total time in the operating room GA A2-E 🆚 🆚 spinal anesthesia

  34. General, Epidural, Spinal, or CSE Anesthesia • Recommendations: • Anesthetic technique should be individualized: anesthetic, obstetric, fetal risk factors (elective vs. emergency), the preferences of the patient, and the judgment of the anesthesiologist. • Uterine displacement should be maintained until delivery • Neuraxial techniques in preference to GA for most cesarean deliveries

  35. General, Epidural, Spinal, or CSE Anesthesia • Pencil-point spinal needles instead of cutting-bevel spinal needles. • For urgent cesarean delivery, an indwelling epidural catheter may be used as an alternative to initiation of spinal or GA. • GA may be the most appropriate choice in some circumstances (profound fetal bradycardia, ruptured uterus, severe hemorrhage, and severe placental abruption).

  36. IV Fluid Preloading or Co-loading IV fluid preloading or co-loading frequency of hypotension after SA ? A2-E 🆚 no fluids IV fluid preloading frequency of hypotension after SA 🆚 ? A2-E IV fluid co-loading

  37. IV Fluid Preloading or Co-loading • Recommendations: • IV fluid preloading/co-loading: ⬇︎ frequency of hypotension after spinal anesthesia • Do not delay the initiation of spinal anesthesia in order to administer a fixed volume of IV fluid.

  38. Ephedrine/Phenylephrine ⬇︎ maternal hypotension 🆚 IV ephedrine placebo A1-B maternal hypotension 🆚 ? IM ephedrine placebo A2-E higher dosages of phenylephrine ⬇︎ maternal hypotension A2-B Lower dosages of phenylephrine maternal hypotension ? A2-E ⬇︎ frequency of maternal hypotension phenylephrine A1-B 🆚 ephedrine A1-H ⬆︎ umbilical artery pH values

  39. Ephedrine or Phenylephrine • Recommendations: • Either IV ephedrine or phenylephrine may be used. • In the absence of maternal bradycardia, consider selecting phenylephrine (improved fetal acid–base status in uncomplicated pregnancies).

  40. Neuraxial Opioids for Postoperative Analgesia 🆚 epidural opioids A2-B ⬆︎ postoperative analgesia intermittent IV/IM opioids nausea, vomiting, pruritus ? A1-E ⬆︎ postoperative analgesia A2-B 🆚 PCEA PCA nausea, vomiting, pruritus, sedation ? A2-E

  41. Neuraxial Opioids for Postoperative Analgesia • Recommendations: • For postoperative analgesia after neuraxial anesthesia, consider selecting neuraxial opioids rather than intermittent injections of parenteral opioids.

  42. Postpartum Tubal Ligation

  43. Recommendations: NPO for solid foods (6 - 8h), depending on the type of food ingested (fat content). Aspiration prophylaxis Timing of the procedure - anesthetic technique should be individualized: anesthetic and obstetric risk factors (blood loss), and patient preferences 🆚 ? neuraxial anesthesia GA impact of the timing of a postpartum tubal ligation on maternal outcome ?

  44. Neuraxial techniques in preference to GA for most postpartum tubal ligations. • Gastric emptying will be delayed in patients who have received opioids during labor. • An epidural catheter placed for labor may be more likely to fail with longer post-delivery time intervals.

  45. Management of Obstetric and Anesthetic Emergencies • resources for management of hemorrhagic emergencies • equipment for management of airway emergencies • cardiopulmonary resuscitation

  46. Recommendations: Resources available to manage hemorrhagic emergencies In an emergency, type-specific or O-negative blood is acceptable. Intractable hemorrhage + banked blood is not available ⇒ intraoperative cell salvage Resources for Management of Hemorrhagic Emergencies ⬇︎ maternal complications

  47. Table 1. Suggested Resources for Obstetric Hemorrhagic Emergencies • Large-bore IV catheters • Fluid warmer • Forced-air body warmer • Availability of blood bank resources • Massive transfusion protocol • Equipment for infusing IV fluids and blood products rapidly. • hand-squeezed fluid chambers, hand-inflated pressure bags, and automatic infusion devices

  48. Recommendations: pulse oximeter and carbon dioxide detector. Basic airway management equipment should be immediately available during neuraxial analgesia. Portable equipment for difficult airway management Equipment for Management of Airway Emergencies ⬇︎ maternal, fetal, and neonatal complications B4-B

  49. Equipment for Management of Airway Emergencies • A pre formulated strategy for intubation of the difficult airway • failed tracheal intubation⇒ ventilation with mask + cricoid pressure or a supraglottic airway device (laryngeal mask airway, intubating laryngeal mask airway, or laryngeal tube) • Not possible to ventilate or awaken the patient, ⇒ surgical airway
