Abstract EN
The use of supplemental oxygen in uncomplicated cesarean deliveries under spinal anesthesia has been thoroughly investigated during recent decades.
The aim of this study was to determine the benefits for both mother and infant of administering supplemental, low-dose oxygen via a nasal cannula versus having no supplement (i.e., room air only).
Healthy parturients at term undergoing elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were randomly allocated into two groups: an oxygen group (n=170), who received 3 LPM oxygen via a nasal cannula; and a room-air group (n=170), who were assigned to breathe room air.
Maternal oxygen saturation was measured continuously by using pulse oximeter.
The desaturation was determined by oxygen saturation <94% over 30 seconds.
Umbilical cord gases and Apgar scores were collected followed delivery of the infant.
All maternal desaturation events occurred in 12 parturients assigned to the room-air group.
Most events were concurrent with hypotension.
The umbilical venous partial pressure of oxygen was significantly higher in the oxygen group.
The other blood gas measurements and Apgar scores were not significantly different between the two groups.
Based on our findings, the use of supplemental oxygen could prevent maternal desaturation resulting from receiving sedation and intraoperative hypotension.
