Randomized Controlled TrialEffect of preloading on hemodynamic of the patient undergoing surgery under spinal anaesthesia.
Hypotension and bradycardia after conduction of spinal anaesthesia are common side effects because of sympathetic blockade. Efforts to prevent these complications have been attempted like preloading with crystalloids, colloids or use of vasopressors. The role of volume preloading to prevent hemodynamic changes associated with spinal anaesthesia has been recently questioned. ⋯ On the basis of findings, it is concluded that volume preloading had no effect on the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia after spinal anaesthesia.
