Abstract

aim. To assess the efficacy and safety of general associated balanced anesthesia based on epidural block during cesarean section in patients with “severe” mitral stenosis.Material and methods. The results of clinical observations, and a complex of clinical, functional and biochemical studies during cesarian section of 26 women aged 18-30 years, with a gestation period of 32-34 weeks had been studied. All patients had «severe» MS (according to A.N. Okorokov, s classifications). Depending on the method of anesthesia all patients were divided into two equal groups Patients of group I (n=13) were operated under conditions of associated balanced anesthesia (CBA) on the basis of epidural blockade (EB) patients of group II (n=13) were operated under conditions of one of the most common variants of multicomponent anesthesia (MCA). The operations were performed in a planned method, their durations made 35-60 minutes. The duration of anesthesia were 50-110 minutesResults. Significant advantages of CBA on the basis of EB became apparent: minimal expense of narcotic preparations and muscular relaxants: rapid rehabilitation of reflex muscular activity, making it possible to carry out extubations of trachea in earlier term: opportunity of using epidural catheter in postoperative period in order to receive prolonged postoperative analgesia. Conclusion. CBA on the basis of EB provides reliable antinociceptive protections of the body from surgical aggression, ensures a smooth course of anesthesia and early postoperative period and therefore has an obvious advantage over the traditional version of GMCA with AVL.K
